James Marvell, original lead male vocalist of
the 60’s group Mercy, is still shaking his head
in amazement over something that happened more
than three decades ago.
In 1969 Mercy skyrocketed to # 2 in Billboard
with their million selling Warner Brother’s/Sundi
Record’s mega-hit, “Love Can Make You
Happy.”They shared the top 10 with Elvis
Presley, Frank Sinatra and The Beatles. Mercy
followed up with another Billboard chart hit
titled “Forever.”
It was the only time that those pop legends
shared the top 10 simultaneously. Marvell still
can’t believe he was part of music history.
Today,James Marvell performs a strong
60s show and with the help of his wife Faye
recreates the classics he recorded with Mercy
such as “Love Is Blue”, “Obladi”, “Forever” and
“Love Can Make You Happy”, the song that
captured the essence of the peace and love
generation.
