1945 Cleve Francis, C&W vocals/guitar, b. Jennings, LA, USA. In 1973, after obtaining his degree from the Medical College of Virginia. Francis moved to Washington, D.C., establishing himself as a cardiologist. However, he started moonlighting as a vocalist in the local clubs, even self-releasing three albums on his own label. Francis' real break came as a result of one of his patients, Olaf Hall, having a heart-attack. Olaf's brother was "Big John" Garfield Hall, a member of the R&B band 'The Heartbeats'. "Big John" helped Francis get an audition with Playback Records, who signed him. His debut album flopped, but his debut single and video, "Love Light," released in 1990, both won critical acclaim.
