The Obscure Donald Hines

I have had these two Donald Hines singles in my record collection for many many years. I like the sound on both 45's one is a very swinging R&B tune titled (Baby, Tell It Like It Is) with sax and guitar. The other (You Had To Pay) is much more bluesy and moody. From my research there is very little to report. Hines seems to be packed away in collectors attics or in there one dollar box. I looked on allmusic all they had was his name and he was an R&B singer. no blogs have anything on him. There is one 45 for sale on ebay for $12.00. Hines had three singles on the Hi record label Hi 2043 Baby, Tell It Like It Is / I'm So Glad, Hi 2056 Stormy Monday Blues / Please Accept, and Hi 2068 You Had To Pay / Trouble Is My Name recorded in 1962-1963. I uploaded my two singles on Youtube so everyone can hear what they have been missing. Hines had another single on Starmaker 1001 Going Crazy in an old price guide I have prices it at $50.00 to $60.00. I have never seen a copy of this record or for that matter one that was up for sale. I hope my two videos inspire you to dig out your copies of these gems and put them on your collection between Z.Z. Hill and Joe Hinton.........Happy Hunting.
