Wade Flemons

Wade Flemons

Wade Flemons (born 25 September 1940, Coffeyville, Kansas and died 13 October 1993, Battle Creek, Michigan), was an American soul singer. He began recording solo work as early as 1958, but is best remembered for his work as a musician and vocalist in the pop group Earth, Wind & Fire between 1970 and 1973. Some of Flemons' songs away from the group are still heavily revived, especially with the Northern Soul movement in the UK, notably "That Other Place" and perhaps his greatest ever, "Jeanette", recorded in 1968. He died from cancer aged 53.
