Clyde McPhatter was born 90 years ago today on November 15, 1932. He was the first person inducted twice into the Rock & Roll Hall of fame, once as an individual in 1987 and once as a member of The Drifters in 1998. Sadly he died when he was only 39. Here he is with Bobby Darin performing “Have Mercy Baby” in 1960. ____________________ Have Mercy Baby Songwriter: Billy Ward
Have mercy, mercy, baby I know I done you wrong Have mercy, mercy, baby I know I done you wrong
My heart is full of sorrow Take me back where I belong
I've been good for nothing I've lied and cheated too I've been good for nothing I've lied and cheated too
Been reaping all all my sorrow I don't know what to do
Lord, have mercy, baby Tell me, what have I done wrong Have mercy, mercy, baby Tell me, what have I done wrong
Been reaping all all my sorrow Take me back where I belong Oh, yeah, yeah
So, have mercy, mercy, baby I know I done you wrong Oh, have mercy, baby I know I done you wrong
But my heart is full of sorrow Take me back where I belong
I've been good for nothing I've lied and cheated too I've been good for nothing I've lied and cheated too
Been reaping all all my sorrow Tell me what I'm supposed to do

Lecture 3: One of the earliest bands to mix rhythm and blues and doo-wop was Billy Ward and His Dominoes, formed by Savannah, Georgia-born Billy Ward (1921-2002) in New York City around 1950. They scored a minor hit with their first recording “Do Something For Me.” But it was their even bigger hit, “Sixty Minute Man,” which landed at #1 on the Billboard R&B and #17 on Billboard Pop in 1951, that cemented their foundational spot in the history of rock ‘n’ roll. “Sixty Minute Man” might’ve climbed even higher on the charts, but radio stations across America started banning it when the rumors were circulating that it was a sexual-themed song. The Dominoes continued recording up to about 1957, and saw some wonderful talent come and go in the group (Jackie Wilson, Clyde McPhatter, etc.).

I’d like to know when she’s not with me, If she’s still true to me. I’d like to know when we’re kissing, Does she feel just what I feel, And how am I to know it’s really real?
