This sounds more like GIno Washington (Detroit), rather than The Ramjam Band's Geno.  And it also sounds more like Gino's 1970s music.  But, really, the voice doesn't sound like either of them to me after several back-to-back plays.

It is Gino Washington .. Pete Lowrie got it from him on one of his Detroit trips

Thanks.  Upon further listening, I hear several of Gino's mannerisms.  His voice was a little rough in a few spots.  But THIS recording is much clearer than the one I downloaded and to which I first listened.  It clearly sounds like Gino, and his style of singing, and music of his band.  Do we know when it was recorded?  It sounds like somewhere between 1968 and 1971.
