Plucked out of vinyl obscurity and restored via ai music magic comes this obscure late 1950s song from Errol Pennywhistle.
The late 1950s weren’t kind to Doo Wop upstart Errol Pennywhistle. I’m Broke, his first vinyl record, never saw store shelves, instead being sent “accidentally” to a local landfill. “I spent days diggin’ every copy I could outta that garbage palace,” Errol stated in his statement to the local PD after being arrested for trespassing and theft. “How can you be arrested for takin' your own sh*t?” It would be months until Pennywhistle was back on the streets with records in hand, peddling the one by one from his cardboard box on street corners around Detroit. But like so many relationships, what started with pity eventually grew into a little something more. Pennywhistle developed a cult following, allowing him the opportunity to purchase more studio time from a reluctant Motown Records, who wouldn’t voluntarily back him until after his third release.
