Sam regrets to this day that they split up when they got to Linden High. That is where Sam met Wayne Tevlin, a great singer and fabulous guitarist. They inducted a classmate Richard (LUIGI) Soldo (Mr. Bassman) and first tenor Raymond Creapeau (Pitched for the Detroit Tigers) they called themselves The Uniques.
They recorded in 1960 on Pride Records the sides_I'm So Unhappy / It's Got To Come From Your Heart. later re-released on Bliss and Gone Records with anew B side_I'm Confessin(That I Love You).
Later changed their name to The Four Kings and recorded in 1964 for Can American Records the side_One Night (b/w_Lonely Lovers). a song that topped the charts around the USA.
Wayne Tevlin sang a tremendous falsetto lead on that song. It was headed to the number one spot....then a bomb dropped....the British Invasion hit the USA.

Today Sam and Wayne are still vocalizing and still waiting for that hit song to come along....
