The Bluenotes were a vocal group from Asheboro, North Carolina featuring Tom Underwood, Joe Tanner, Pat Patterson, and Ralph Harrington. They recorded for the Colonial and Brooke record labels. Their first recordings were released as the Blue Notes in 1955 and 1956 for Colonial records of Chapel Hill, N.C. By their third Colonial release, "Page One/Mighty Low" they reverted to spelling their group name as one word (Bluenotes) which continued throughout the group's lifespan. Besides their own releases, they also created vocal backing for other Colonial recording artists including George Hamilton IV, Johnny Dee (Loudermilk) on several of his Colonial releases, Billy Craddock, Doug Franklin and Henry Wilson. "My Lucky Love/Drizzlin' Rain", which they recorded with Doug Franklin, was their first release to chart reaching # 73 in September 1958. Moving over to the Brooke label in Asheboro, N.C. in 1959, the Bluenotes had their second hit record with their first release for the label "I Don't Know What It Is / You Can't Get Away From Love" which reached # 61 in early 1960. They released two other singles for Brooke Records before disbanding.
