The Notations v The Mighty Marvelows - In The Morning

The Notations are a Chicago group formed in 1969 who later split into two groups The Ledgends and a new Notations led by Clifford Curry. They have re-emerged in the last few years releasing sweet soul ballads. 

Their latest offering (released 11 Apr 2021) is a cover of a song originally recorded in 1967 by The Mighty Marvelos which had a storming Northern Soul tune 'Talkin' Bout Ya, Baby' on the flip side. 

'In The Morning' was written by two of the group members Melvin Mason and Andrew Thomas. The Marvelos had a hit with 'Do I' in 1965 and by 1967 had changed their name to The Mighty Marvelows to avoid confusion with the LA group The Marvellos who recorded for Loma. This was their only other record to chart, reaching #24 R&B & 105 Billboard in March 1968.

Here are both versions.
