THE DRIFTERS : SOLDIER OF FORTUNE / I GOTTA GET MYSELF A WOMAN. US. 78.rpm (1956) Atlantic. 1101. Vintage US Pressed 78 Vinyl Disc From 1956. In Beautiful Excellent Condition Throughout. The name 'Drifters' was chosen by Clyde McPhatter, the honey voiced singer who was the first in a long line of lead voices. He could not have chosen a better name since members drifted in and out of the band from the very beginning. The hall of fame inductees span the group's history - McPhatter, Ben E. King, Rudy Lewis, Johnny Moore, Bill Pinckney, Gerhart Thrasher and Charlie Thomas. All the same, a consistent high standard was maintained throughout The Drifters recording career on Atlantic Records, which lasted from late 1953 to early 1966, during that time they cut numerous records that stand as a milestone of sweet soul music.
