"Daddy Rockin' Strong: A Tribute to Nolan Strong & the Diablos" is a vinyl LP stocked full of smokin' Nolan Strong & the Diablos covers! Executive Producers Rich Tupica and Billy Miller have been compiling this track list for over a year, and it was worth the wait.
It features songs by The Dirtbombs, Reigning Sound, Andre Williams, Cub Coda, Wreckless Eric & Amy Rigby, The A-Bones, Mark 'BBQ' Sultan, Lenny Kaye, Outrageous Cherry, The Hentchmen, Demon's Claws, Gentleman Jesse & His Men, Danny Kroha & the Del Torros & more!
The record also features heartfelt liner notes written by soul legend Andre Williams, a close friend of the late Nolan Strong and fellow Fortune Records artist.
Nolan Strong was a Detroit singer, a fantastic pre-Motown star. "The Wind" and "Mind Over Matter" are two of the best songs to ever come outta the Motor City - those songs are remembered on this tribute LP.
This record marks the second release from The Wind Records ... Norton Records will kindly distribute the LP.

I am a big fan of the recording "The Wind" by Nolan Strong and the Diablos. This is music and singing at its finest ! I love listening to this type of music and am a great fan of the "oldies." Upon listening to Nolan Strong, you immediately know that he had a tremendous influence on Smokey Robinson.
ReplyDeleteI was a young child when this particular song was recorded, however, I loved it ! As an adult,I feel that this was truly one of the best early songs that was ever recorded.
