This New York City group's origins dated back to the mid-'40s, when they were known as Deek Watson & the Brown Dots. Former <a href="spotify:artist:5bOsFzuJ6QZMr86ezC4oXY">Ink Spots</a> member Watson, Pat Best, <a href="spotify:artist:6XrOb8biVVH7gH09AIjB7l">Jimmy Gordon</a>, and Jimmie Nabbie were the founding lineup. The Four Tunes made their recording debut for Regis in 1945. They did a session for Manor in 1946 as the Sentimentalists, minus Watson, with Danny Owens taking his place. They then became the Four Tunes. <a href="spotify:artist:41ZUI3a7yx5P3nfzkUZlDr">Best</a> and Watson's composition "I Love You for Sentimental Reasons" became a smash for <a href="spotify:artist:7v4imS0moSyGdXyLgVTIV7">Nat "King" Cole</a> and several other performers, while Nabbie's "You Are My Love" was a hit for <a href="spotify:artist:0hiq5HixjjN3gtSXLZmnBw">Jonie James</a>. The Four Tunes did score a pair of triumphs themselves, with "Marie" peaking at number two on the R&B charts (number 13 pop) in 1953 and "I Understand Just How You Feel" becoming a number seven R&B hit in 1954. It was also their lone Top Ten pop single, peaking at number six. Both were for Jubilee Records. <a href="spotify:artist:6cBnm4uGHSwJmdhvTfQXEg">The Sid Bass Orchestra</a> backed them on both songs. The Four Tunes continued until 1963. Nabbie maintained a solo career heading an <a href="spotify:artist:5bOsFzuJ6QZMr86ezC4oXY">Ink Spots</a> ensemble. ~ Ron Wynn, Rovi
