I have had these 2 60's Soul Artist photo's for some years know and seem to have lost the Artists details.

 

I keep thinking I should know group in the car as the guy in the middle is nearly ringing a bell

 

Can anyone help me identify the 2 male groups pictured?

 

Cheers, Lee

Second pic is the Fabulous Cadillacs

Gerri, thanks, that certainly rings the bell, the car probably gives it away as well.  Much appreciated, Lee

RobbK will know the other pic! Over to you Robb.

Isn't the first Little Anthony & The Imperials? Thought so initially ... then I googled this and they are the same suits

In the "suits" photo, above, I see what looks to be Little Anthony in the middle.  But, I don't see him in the OP's photo.  Also, the suits look a bit different.  They look lighter in colour in the OP's photo, and the black lapels look thinner and less tapered.  I think they may be 2 different groups wearing slightly different suits.  Several R&B groups wore suits similar to that during the mid to late '50s.  The Flamingos were one.  The platters at one time, and several of the New York groups.  It's really tough to see who those guys are in the OP's photo, as the view is from the side and the lighting is murky on the three on the right side.

 

Yes, the other photo is The Cadillacs, used for their album.

Robb, superb feedback, really appreciate it, the more I look the more I think Richard has a point.  I'll dig out the original and compare it.
