R.I.P. Clarence Carter (January 14, 1936 – May 13, 2026). He was a blues and soul singer, songwriter, musician and record producer whose records have been played in my house for as long as I can remember. This was Grown Folks Music.
Clearing out old boxes of paperwork I’m finding old invoices and notices from Columbia House and BMG (RCA) Music Group. These music clubs helped me in the beginning of building my record collection. I’m forever dedicated to having physical copies of my favorite music.
