From Matt the Cat: Happy 76th Birthday to the legendary BEN E. KING. He was born Benjamin Nelson on September 28, 1938 in Henderson, NC, but was raised in Harlem. KING joined the Five Crowns vocal group (using the name Nelson) in 1958, just before they were chosen to be the new Drifters. Shortly thereafter, in 59, The Drifters hit #1 on the R&B Chart and #2 Pop with There Goes My Baby, co-written by KING. By 61, he was out on his own, scoring 24 R&B hits under his own name. https://youtube/watch?v=i3HXy9mGPpI
