Gene Forrest and Eunice Levy were one of the boy/girl duos, like Shirley & Lee, who were an integral element of the R&B scene in the late 1950s and early 60s – they were both from Texas, but met up in Los Angeles when they were both in their early ‘20s and trying to forge careers as R&B songwriters and singers in the mid-1950s.
Gene Forrest initially made records for John Dolphin’s Recorded In Hollywood label and then Aladdin, before they teamed up as Gene & Eunice to record their song “Ko-Ko-Mo” for the small Combo label, and then re-recorded it for Aladdin to score a debut hit. They went on to have a couple more hits as they recorded together into the 1960s.
This 41-track 2-CD collection comprises most of their A & B sides on the Recorded In Hollywood, RPM, Combo, Aladdin, Case and Lilly labels from these years, with some solo recordings as well as performances as a duo.
They were very much part of that particular era in pop/R&B, and this is about as complete an overview of their core career as we could assemble, and it makes for thoroughly entertaining listening.
