Reg King - Reg King



















Reg King - Reg King  - 1971

Reginald King (born 5 February 1945; died 8 October 2010), who has died from cancer aged 65, was one of the most accomplished white British soul singers of the 1960s. Fronting his band the Action, King was the equal of Steve Marriott, Steve Winwood or Rod Stewart, with a voice that was smooth, unhurried and deeply soulful.

The Action were the mods' band of choice: less pop than their contemporaries the Who and the Small Faces, with a repertoire that included versions of the latest soul singles imported from America. Part of their appeal lay in the fact that they remained underground: despite boasting a devoted live following, and being feted by the Beatles producer George Martin, the band never charted and remained largely unknown until the mod revivals of the 1980s and 90s.
