Today's topic is James and Bobby Purify. They had a song titled: So Many Reasons. They were an R&B singing duo whose big hits were I’m Your Puppet in 1966, which reached number six in the US Billboard Hot 100 Chart and "Let Love Come Between Us" in 1967, which reached number 23 in the US. The original "Bobby Purify" (Robert Lee Dickey) was replaced by a second "Bobby Purify" (Ben Moore) in the 1970s. James Lee Purify was cousin to the original Robert Lee Dickie formed in 1965.
I'd like to talk about their single So Many Reasons. It is a great song too.It's a song that some may not have heard. It's a single that comes from the album Shake A Tail Feather! The best of James & Bobby Purify released in 2002. The song So Many Reasons is telling all the reasons why someone is loved. James and Bobby are singing and telling the story. Songwriters knew how to write down in words the reasons why they loved someone in those days, and the singers didn't have a hard time expressing and explaining it. You could see and feel their emotions.
