Joe Tex, who was born Joseph Arrington Jr. and was later known as Yusuf Hazziez following religious conversion, was an American Southern soul singer-songwriter, most popular during the 1960s and 1970s.

Yet another super rare soul performance. This was from a promotional Reel to Reel BETA tape I found in a television station I worked at in the mid 1990's.

I really have no idea as to the true origin or specific year!. + Informações
