The Impressions

5/5

The Impressions were an American music group originally formed in 1958. Their repertoire includes doo-wop, gospel, soul, and R&B.

The group was founded as the Roosters by Chattanooga, Tennessee natives Sam Gooden, Richard Brooks and Arthur Brooks, who moved to Chicago and added Jerry Butler and Curtis Mayfield to their line-up to become Jerry Butler & the Impressions. By 1962 Butler and the Brookses had departed, and after switching to ABC-Paramount Records, Mayfield, Gooden, and returning original Impression Fred Cash collectively became a top-selling soul act. Mayfield left the group for a solo career in 1970; Leroy Hutson, Ralph Johnson, Reggie Torian (born Reginald Torian), and Nate Evans (Twinight Records) were among the replacements who joined Gooden and Cash.

Celebration of colour:Love for melanated royalty

I always have and always will feel and had a kindred love for brothers and sisters of a richer hue,from the never ending harlem renaissance to the works of Schhomburg and Jones to the kids out in Decatur and the suited up FOI selling bean pies for brother Farrakhan.from griots to presidents and ghettos to high rise apartments this is not my experiences just my observations not my place to understand and sympathize but to empathise with a class/group/culture/tradition/and history most fluid and highly regarded by myself and others. Not my life to live but I love who I love and I am a part of this story and an objective observer as well as a student and lover.
