RAY BROWN and THE WHISPERS- Fool, Fool, Fool/Go To Him

Based in Sydney and operating from just 1964 to 1966, Ray Brown and The Whispers were a very popular beat and soul group both live and in the Australian charts.  This 45 was their third release and the band's third No.1 in Sydney (there were no national charts in Australia until the end of the sixties).  It was also sonically their most adventurous record, particularly on the spectacular 'Go To Him', with both sides benefiting from other worldly production: double tracked drums, echoey vocals, and treated guitars sounding not unlike something Joe Meek might have concocted at 304 Holloway Road.
