It's Everything About You That I Love by Lee Williams & The Cymbals

Artist Biography For Lee Williams & The Cymbals

Discovered While Practicing In Their Backyard Of 127th St. In Harlem NYC By Carnival Records Owner Joe Evans This Band Was Signed On The Spot And Immediately Thrust Into The Carnival Rotation In Newark NJ. Their First Record Was The Ronnie McCoy Of The Topics Penned “She’s So Fine”. This Record Was Primarily An East Coast Record Gaining Popularity In Philly Baltimore And Washington But Also Gaining The Band Some Notoriety In Cleveland And Chicago. Although This Record Did Climb The Charts It Narrowly Missed As A Top 40 Hit. McCoy Wrote Another Song For Them “Peeping Through The Window” Which Didn’t Chart As High But Would Be Their Second Largest Selling Record. They Would Go On To Release Four More Singles For Carnival Including This Side. Once Again Records Like This Without Proper Promotion Would Only Garner Local Attention And Would Get Lost In The Sea Of 45’s Artists And Hopefuls In NYC And All Over The East Coast. They Would Move From Carnival To Small Labels Like Pittsburgh’s Black Circle Get It Together And Rapda IC Funk Was The Side On This Label Only To Fade Out Into Obscurity. But Did Lee Williams? Upon Digging Further Into This Man’s Life I Turned Up A Bunch Of Info On Lee Williams And The Spiritual QC’s. A Man Who Very Closely Resembles Williams Is Fronting A Tight Ass Gospel Band And Is All Over YouTube. If Anyone Can Confirm This I’d Appreciate It. Possibly He Had His Roots In Gospel Did The Secular Music Thing And Went Back To The Roots Once Again.
