Happy Birthday L J Reynolds (27th January 1953). L.J. Reynolds released some fine albums in the 80s, but never had the major success he deserved as a solo artist. Key To The World came very close. Reynolds had some good singles in the early 60s, when he was recording for Tri-Spin as Larry Chubby Reynolds. He moved to Mainstream in 1969, then was lead vocalist for The Relations in 1970. After cutting singles for several small independents and landing one Law-ton single in the R&B Top 30 (Let One Hurt Do in 1971), Reynolds replaced William Howard in The Dramatics in 1973, remaining with them until 1980. He then signed a solo deal with Capitol, and his LPs were frequently well received, but never sold as well as they should have done.. Only the song Touch Down among his many Capitol releases ever reached the R&B Top 30. Reynolds rejoined The Dramatics in 1986. GARY
