David Meikle Posted November 25, 2016 Share Posted November 25, 2016 Raynoma's book is one of my cherished pieces on American Soul Music. I even bought the spoken word version for goodness sake. My only regret is that Miss Ray didn't elaborate more on her collaboration with Eddie Singleton at Shrine in Washington DC. However, Andy Rix's detective work and interviews provide superb notes on this wonderful record label. Here's some more label scans which help confirm that Miss Ray was a multi-talented music lady.

David Meikle Posted November 25, 2016 Share Posted November 25, 2016 Miss Ray played the ondioline on a number of songs including Gordy's first release, Linda and the Vistas and Zing by the Satintones. This 1950's version provides an idea of what it looked like. It provided vibrato sounds and is referred to as the first synthesizer. Link to comment Social source share More sharing options...
