Songs that were covered into big hits (and one was that stolen), the Chi-Lites when they were wild young grizzly bears, imagining a Crosby Stills and Nash album in the mid-60s, Yusef Lateef at the wrong speed, Earth Wind and Fire when they were Salty Peppers (and backing up the Emotions), the Drifters lead singer that should have been a solo star, Detroit doowop and so much more!
