Noblemen - McCordsville - Prism 45

The Noblemen - direct from McCordsville, Indiana, left us one great 45.
She still thinks I love her B/W
Satisfied on Prism 1930.

The Noblemen played around Indianapolis quite often, but seem to have very little known about them. The 45 shows "Crouch & Wilhelm" and "Spencer" as songwriters. I know a James Spencer had a Prism records connection, but maybe that is a coincidence. Any info is appreciated!

It looks like Fountain Square to me.

I found the ad in Franklin paper of all places! It just caught my eye.

Now we need to identify the Band in the video.........

My father co-wrote that song and sung on the record. I do poses a 45 pictured. I also poses letters written about it. I also poses unpublished hand written music penned by my father.

Any information anyone can share would be appreciated as his brother is near death and our family would cherish passing the info along to him. ( emc2jc "at" yahoo.com )

Chuck was a kind soul with a fantastic smile. He just passed away a few days ago from dementia with the love of his life, Lori, by his side. He left behind his 16 year old grandson (whom he had adopted) and 40 year old, special needs son adopted son. Chuck was beloved in our community, especially the Seckinger High baseball community where his son plays.
