Biography :

In the early ’60s, arranger and multi-instrumentalist Harold Battiste (who had done some A&R for Specialty) formed the New Orleans-based AFO label with the intention of giving local artists a fairer deal via a Black-owned company. He initiated the first African-American musician-owned record label (All For One) and publishing company (At Last Pub. Co.). Only one true hit resulted, Barbara George’s “I Know” , but some solid New Orleans R&B was recorded during its brief time in operation. A year and a half ago before their recording session the Woods Brothers appeared and were runners-up on the Ted Mack Show.  The Woods Brothers recorded two song For At Last "To You My Love" and "Love, Love, Love".
