Godoy Colbert v Sonny Craver - I Wanna Thank You


Researching records posted on this blog generally throws up previously 'unrealised' links. Here's another, as I posted a record by The Light Drivers the other day who had a link to James (Jimmy) Conwell and Godoy Colbert who were also in The Exits. Several of their songs were written by Len Jewel who owned Teri-De which also released records by another group that Conwell was a member of Smoked Sugar Co. 

Here we have Sonny Craver on Teri-De with a song written by Len Jewell and Godoy Colbert and also recorded by Colbert himself in 1969 on Revue.

The song was also released on Stanson, a label owned by Craver, in 1971 (according to Discogs).  It credits a Charles Hutchinson in addition to Jewell and Colbert, who is also credited on Colbert's version, and Discogs links Hutchinson to Willie Hutch which I don't think is accurate.
