Male/female duo Dee and Don only seem to have had one 45 issued. The Memphis toe-tapper I Can't Stand It forms a good contrast to the high quality deep How Much It Hurts Me on the other side. Great rasping vocals from Don, and the tough toned Dee really compliments them.
Jim O'Neill wrote in with more info on "Don". He says "His real name is Homer McMinn, better known now as Papa Don McMinn, a regular performer on Beale Street since the 1980s. He has been called "the Pale Prince of Beale Street" and "The Boogie Man." He is a white singer and guitarist originally from Kansas, where he made a 45, "Mary Jane," in the 1960s on the Runnin' Wild label under the name Tiny Lymon & the Jukes. He's mostly known for blues and boogie but also does country, rock and R&B." Does anybody have any info on "Dee"?
