Beau Dollar's single may have been produced and inspired by a white Cincinnati guitar hero, but the guys got the feel of King Curtis' 1964 hit just right for the 1966 soul loving audience. At the time, their version became the theme tune for Radio Luxembourg 390 and the UK's main black music show on Radio 1, presented by Mike Raven…"Hi, I'm Mike Raven.... this is my R&B show... watch out... here we go”. William “Beau Dollar” Bowman was also a member of James Brown’s hard funk outfit, The Dapps. Soul Serenade is featured on Kent’s Cellar of Soul – an excellent compilation, worth checking out.
