February 11, 201015 yr Well, I have a copy. I've never seen another one. Has someone been playing it? I think it's great blue-eyed soul, and I wouldn't sell it.

February 12, 201015 yr Kev: It's Kane, not Cain. And I'm 99 percent certain it's a white act. I played it on the radio here: https://www.wfmu.org/playlists/shows/33798

I think it's great blue-eyed soul, and I wouldn't sell it. one went through cheap on ebay within the last year, I don't have it but i noticed it searching another user's ebay purchases. i didn't know there was a second one, one of those things where i didn't even click on a record by "kane and able" because I didn't know there was one I didn't have.

No not a version of it.AC is the typical 60's beat ballad ,whereas K&A is uptempo late 60's early 70's to my ears.I really like !!!! As Weingarden as already said,,its on his show,also on the May 22 2009 show at 44.44mins in.

February 13, 201015 yr They're not white, they're latino - their names were Artie Herrera and Al Herrera. Jimmy Holvay and Gary Beisber (both later of the Mob of "I Dig Everything About You" fame) were involved in their discovery and the writing and producing of their 45s. The Herrera's were also later in the Mob, in fact 'Little Al' wasthat group's lead singer and it's he who can be heard on "I Dig..." "Break Down and Cry" on Destination is more or less the same record as "He'll Break Your Heart" by K&A on Red Bird. One of the best RighteousBrothersAlikes ever, IMO...

Yes, I believe so, I think they're on all of the Mob's records right through the 60s and 70s. Forgot to mention earlier that the same surnames were not a coincidence, they were brothers - which I guess, is where the Kane and Abel bit comes in!
