Loved them. Saw them many times and they opened for Sammy. Thanks Bobby Stevens, Sonny Charles and Sweet Louie!
Same, I saw them a bunch when I was playing Vegas with Jerry Van Dyke.
Time for a cultural renaissance. “Return to skills”
I saw them open for Ike and Tina Turner Revue in 1970. They were so good! It was an off-the-strip show east of the strip at 2 AM. It seemed like every musician in town was there.
And Ike and Tina copied LTDs version of “ Proud Mary “ for their #1 hit !
Yes. I remember watching The Checkmates on Playboy after Dark. I was 10😎🎶
Wow! Just wow! Never seen this before but will be watching it every day now. Sonny Charles has the moves. and the voice!
The best. I saw them in L.A. first in the mid-Sixties - later at Las Vegas Caesars Palace and many other places in LA and Las Vegas over the years. Up until just a few years ago, they were still performing. Unfortunately, we lost Sweet Louie but Sonny Charles is still alive and well. Judy Dixon Gabaldon
Sonny Charles on the left co wrote the Elvis song “ I’m leavin “ !
Most versatile 60's vocalist, Sonny Charles (left). Unbelievable how hard he toiled to become as great as he is.
Sonny Charles was one the best dancers in the day too. I loved this group.
