Lee Canady discovered LeBaron Taylor, who discovered Edwin Starr, who recorded "Agent Double-O-Soul" (written by Taylor).

——————————

"Gentle but bold" are traits of Agent Double-O-Soul.

——————————

Lee got LeBaron Taylor started in the early 1960's. HISTORY followed.

——————————

Look at the lyrics of the song LeBaron wrote, & it somewhat references Lee's involvement.

——————————

Lee listened to what the people were saying and hired LeBaron.

——————————

Find time to let Lee shine telling of his lived music history in Detroit.

——————————

There was a time before "Double-O-Soul;" then Lee arrived & made LeBaron Taylor a star for life.

——————————

Lee found the BEST disc jockey for his Detroit radio show (that his store sponsored) following a filmesque blunder-turned-wonder.

——————————

Lee made a MASSIVE find in hiring LeBaron Taylor to replace a negligent radio host in Detroit.

——————————

Lee brought the world the LEGEND, LeBaron Taylor.

——————————

There was a time before "Agent Double-O-Soul," & then Lee spotlighted the man that would write that tune, & the rest is history!

——————————

One thing leads to another, & Lee is a man that led to other people making music.

——————————

This video ends with the National Anthem connected to Woodstock & my pal that managed bands there.

——————————

Lee put a D.J. on the radio that wrote a TIMELESS hit inspired by James Bond 007 in the 1960's.

——————————

A TIMELESS song inspired by James Bond exists because of Lee Canady discovering its writer.

——————————

Lee found out who made the best music & gave them careers, & Lee even started a D.J., named LeBaron.

——————————

WCHB was a Detroit radio station (CINEMATIC tale from it).

Lyrics for "Agent Double-O-Soul"
[Intro]
(Double-O Soul)

[Verse 1]
I dig rock and roll music
I can do the twine and the jerk
I wear strictly continental suits
And high collared shirts
I've got a reputation of bein'
Gentle but bold
And that's why they call me

[Chorus]
Agent Double-O Soul, baby
Agent Double-O Soul
They call me Double-O Soul, baby
I'm agent Double-O Soul

[Verse 2]
I don't carry no pistol
I don't wear a false mustache
And you'll never see me carrying
Around a little black bag
My real name's no secret
But from me it will never be told
I'm just known as

[Chorus]
Agent Double-O Soul, baby
Agent Double-O Soul
They call me Double-O Soul, baby
I'm agent Double-O Soul

[Bridge]
There once was a fella
Who was down on therock and roll
He couldn't get himself together
He didn't have no kind of soul
The office put me on his case
And I tracked him down right away
Now he's a DJ on a radio show
A station that everybody knows

[Chorus]
Call me Double-O Soul
Call me Double-O Soul

[Instrumental section]
(Double-O Soul)
(Double-O Soul)
(Double-O Soul)
(Double-O Soul)

[Outro]
At my job I worked real hard
I'm on the go
Rain, sleet or snow
I'm agent Double-O Soul, baby
I'm agent Double-O Soul
They call me Double-O Soul, baby
