Harlem Shuffle
Sue records 1966 ILP 951
notes:This duo of Relf and Nelson recorded several singles for different labels,
before "Harlem Shuffle" in 1963. The song was written by Relf and Nelson,
arranged by Barry White, and produced by Fred Smith. It was based on a number
called "Slauson Shuffletime" (named after a boulevard in Los Angeles) by
another Los Angeles singer, Round Robin. When released on the Marc label,
"Harlem Shuffle" became a modest hit on the R&B chart. Its vocal interplay
directly influenced later duos such as Sam and Dave. However, its main
success came as late as 1969, when it was re-released in the UK and became
a Top Ten hit there. Reportedly, George Harrison called it his favourite
record of all time
