Rudy Love

Rudy Like & the Like Family members were a sibling group headed by older sibling Rudy. Over time, non-siblings performed beneath the name, but Rudy continued to be the driving drive; Love Family bloodstream associates are Bob, Gerald, Peggy, Denise, and Shirley. Rudy was created Sept 15, 1948, in Oklahoma as well as the family members transferred to Wichita, KS; it had been a big brood as Rudy provides 14 siblings. He created a like for performing and executing from his gospel performing/musician dad, Robert, and proceeded to go following that. A touring vocalist, Robert crisscrossed the united states as a executing musician with gospel and R&B performers. Rudy, the eldest kid, became the person of the home while father was apart playing. Through his dad, Rudy met lots of the best brands in music if they transferred through Wichita. He produced his initial group in quality school and experienced numerous others before buying Rudy Like & the Like Family in university. The group performed locally, but didn’t record since Wichita wasn’t and isn’t specifically a music mecca. Actually, they didn’t record very much in any way, their discography is normally miniscule mostly list just two singles: “Housewife Blues” b/w “Will Your Mama Find out” and “Ain’t Nothing at all Spooky,” documented in 1975 and 1976, respectively, on Calla Information, aswell as an recording, entitled This Music Is for you personally, which can be out-of-print. But before Calla, they cut Rudy Like for ATV/Pye Information, which can be harder to discover compared to the Calla recording. At Calla, Rudy had written the best music for the Persuaders’ ABOUT Love recording, “Hey Sister, I’m Your Sibling,” a anxious drama. He released two even more singles, “Hungry Kids” and “I QUICKLY Found out You,” on his Earthbound label. He became a demonstration vocalist for Motown Western and South, functioning under companies Clayton Ivey and Terry Woodford. He afterwards did a decade with Sly Rock (being a bandleader and supervisor) but ultimately returned house to Wichita where his mom operates Mama Love’s, a favorite soul food cafe. He performs in occasions and features in the region, like the annual A FAMILY GROUP Affair Special event, and has extended his horizons to composing words and phrases and lyrics for has, i.e. Joyce Markley’s House of Many Home windows, a genuine homegrown musical about an undesired young guy. He also contributed to the creation of Kids of Eden, another regional play.
