The Shades of Blue

The Shades of Blue

The Shades Of Blue was a blue-eyed soul vocal group from Livonia, Michigan, a suburb of Detroit. Their biggest hit was their 1966 song "Oh How Happy", written by Edwin Starr, which reached #12 on the Billboard Hot 100 chart, #7 of the R&B charts and made the Top 10 in Canada. That same year, the song "Lonely Summer", again written by Starr, reached #72. Amid changes in popular music tastes in the late 1960s, their later single efforts failed to chart and they disbanded in 1970.

Group members included Nick Marinelli, Ernie Dernai, Linda Allen, and Bob Kerr.
