This is Rudy Lewis singing Mexican divorce with the Drifters. I saw the Drifters back in the 60's in Chi Town and Rudy Lewis was singing lead.

This was a live performance in Chicago attended by a fan who actually met Rudy and the Drifters. I merely wanted details on their personalities and appearances as a devoted lady fan. Some of us are still around who actually saw that set of Drifters performed lived. If you can't be there, television or tape is the next best thing. Oh well I can always imagine.

The lead vocal on this song is Rudy Lewis. Cool, slim dude. They all were wearing dark brown tux. Charlie Thomas, there was Dock, and Tommy. I have all their songs. There was another dude called Elsbeary. He was back stage and we drank wine with him and the group during intermission. Priceless..When the Drifters returned back on stage they sang a song called Baltimore and Elsbeary did a base part in this song that was really out of sight. You can hear his voice loud and clear. Priceless..

Sometimes singing harmonise can be more harder than singing some lead vocals, to sing harmony is not always as simple as it may sound to none singer ears, so I'm not surprised that the great icon DION WARWICK is on vocals Harmonise, I bet you that she love every second of every minute singing with the SENSATION DRIFTERS Beautiful vocals for a complete song that's fill with passionate that's so heavenly, THE BLACKSTONES

Awesome tune that is rarely heard nowadays, and which wasn't really promoted during the early 1960's by Atlantic Records; I think it was the B side of a record? My amateur group The Sinclairs, i.e., Arthur Stewart, Eddie Albino, Joe Khan, Eddie Griffin and me made this song part of our repertoire.

Sir Ben E King did not do most of the leads . Their biggest hits if you do your homework featured Rudy Lewis and Johnny Moore on lead. Even after King returned to the Drifters Johnny Moorewas still the lead singer.
