Benny Spellman - The Current Man,
By "dco@i-55.com" (Hammond, LA 70403) - See all my reviews
This review is from: Fortune Teller: Golden Classics (Audio CD)
For the last 2yrs or so, I have had the opportunity for twice a day each month to speak with him about his music, his family, his health problems and his continusly praise to God. We found each other because of similar stroke problems. My beginning with love of blues and rock (especially from New Orleans -my boyhood home)Benny's was always a favorite artist. In turn, he kept me fascinated for hours as he spoke about his career and the "inside" about many of the previous and present working during the early '50s, 60s, etc. Benny still sings his written songs as he explains the meaning of the lyrics. Now I have rediscovered this great man. Benny still suffers from a fall off a stage and following a stroke. He walks a little slower and he has to use a cane to help his balance so times. But the fire in his eyes burn when he talks about his work. ...

Thanks, Benny,
By Eclectic Revisited "Charlie" (Arizona) - See all my reviews
This review is from: Fortune Teller: Golden Classics (Audio CD)
It's been a while since anyone did a review of Benny Spellman's work here, but as I write this I know he either did or would have celebrated his 73rd birthday most recently. I know that he worked a lot with Allen Toussaint, a legend of sorts in the music world. I was a youngster when "Lipstick Traces" was a hit and I still remember it fondly at about the exact same time Mary Wells did "The One Who Really Loves You" at Motown and a largely unknown group called the Supremes did "Let Me Go the Right Way". I thank Benny Spellman for a special memory for his song and the flipside "Fortune Teller". You'll enjoy the other songs in this package too. Easily worth the price.

A NEW ORLEANS CLASSIC,
By Ken Rogers (Easley, SC USA) - See all my reviews
This review is from: Fortune Teller: Golden Classics (Audio CD)
If you are a lover of early 60's New Orleans R&B, this is a classic. Benny was a back-up singer with Ernie K-Doe and Allan Tousaint. He had a score with "Lipstick Traces" (included) and this compilation covers almost all of his Minit and Imperial sides. It was a smart move by Collectables in putting this on CD. If you want to add to your early R&B collection, this is one to consider.
