 The song "Shake a Tail Feather" took music and movie fans by storm when sung by the late Ray Charles in "The Blues Brothers" movie in 1980, and it had a similar effect on the dance-crazed USA back in the summer of 1963 when the Five Du-Tones' gritty, manic R&B hit record took off from the dancefloors of Chicago to reach the national Top 50. This vocal quintet from St Louis, Missouri, recorded a number of dance tracks and ballads over two years which have become a landmark in the transition of gritty R&B into sophisticated soul, and for the first time the complete collection of the Five Du-Tones soulful output from Chicago's One-derful label is now made available by Shout Records. Includes original version of Blues Brothers song Shake A Tail Feather. Includes complete Five Du-Tones releases for Chicago's One-Derful label.
