While many thought they were a Black R&B group, Detroit's The Flaming Ember were a white R&B Rock group from Detroit, Michigan. The members of the group were Joe Sladich on guitar, Bill Ellis on piano, Jim Bugnel on bass and Jerry Plunk played drums.
They were signed to the newly formed record label, Hot Wax, started by Motown alumni, the hugely successful songwriting and production team Holland Dozier Holland. They had four singles that appeared on the Billboard Hot 1009 charts during 1969 and 1970. And we're featuring two of them on Voice Your Choice.
Cast you vote at the Voice Your Choice page for either I'm Not My Brother's Keeper or Mind, Body and Soul. I'll play the winner on next week's 23rd Anniversary special.
