The Stones' Got Live If You Want It! 6-track EP was recorded in March, during the early part of their UK tour, when they were still playing classic r & b. Track one consists of nothing more than fans yelling, 'We want the Stones'. Got Live If You Want It! just beats the Manfreds' 4-cut EP The One in the Middle, to the top Fab 40 slot. The Stones' EP tracks: We Want The Stones; Everybody Needs Somebody To Love; Pain In My Heart; Route 66; I'm Movin' On; I'm Alright |

Six months earlier, the Jewels, from
Washington, DC, had enjoyed a minor US Hot Hundred hit with Opportunity.
The follow-up, But I Do did not make the US nationals, but did spend
one week on New York's WMCA Fabulous 57 Survey at #51. The song was well known already, as a 1961 hit for Clarence 'Frogman' Henry.
Sandra Bears, Margie Clark, Carrie Mingo
and Grace Ruffin were fellow members
of their high school choir, when they formed their first group, the Impalas.
After several name-changes, they had evolved into the Jewels
by the time Carrie left the group and Martha Harvin
(aka High) took her place. Soon after, the Jewels were in the
charts with the appropriately-named Opportunity which was to lead
to them appearing at New York's famous Apollo Theatre, where they were spotted
by the Godfather of Soul, James Brown.
He signed the Jewels as the opening act for the James Brown revue, and the
group found themselves appearing at prestigious venues such as Madison Square
garden, Miami Stadium, and the Hollywood Bowl.
James Brown released several records featuring The Jewels. After the group
disbanded, Martha High stayed with Brown and went on to record with him
and Lyn Collins. Lyn sadly passed away
in March 2005.
