Singapore 60s Pop Music.
The CYCLONES, with The CHECKMATES - "The Dew" (1965).
The CYCLONES, brothers SIVA and JAMES CHOY, singing their biggest hit, a song that James wrote. Their tight harmony and natural feel for rhythm and blues, with a strong-pounding band accompanying them, made their recordings together seem fresh and timeless even today.
The CHECKMATES on this record:
BENNY CHAN, lead guitarist
HANS HUSSEIN, rhythm guitarist
LAWRENCE LEE, bass guitarist
AMIR SAMSOEDDIN, drummer
Thanks to Joseph Pereira for including this EP in the "Treasures From The Past, Vol. 1" CD boxset in 2002.
