Command '67 Preview

What did the year 1967 hold for Enoch Light's Command Records? We found out tonight on VeeGeePlus. Nathan Parriot joined the show and was quizzed on his newfound exotica knowledge. Also, I swore never to play another song by the Ray Charles Singers, unless I heard a great deal of public outcry convincing me not to, on the basis that they are kind of lame.
On the show it was theorized that all involved had likely passed away anyway, but it would seem that Ray Charles himself is still with us. Will there one day be a Ray Charles tribute show? Perhaps, but for the foreseeable future, the group will not be appearing on VeeGeePlus.
