The Hesitations

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

The Hesitations were an American R&B group from Cleveland, Ohio. Formed in 1965, they scored several hits in 1967 and 1968, the biggest being their gospel-infused version of the title track to the movie Born Free. After lead singer George "King" Scott was accidentally shot and killed in February 1968, the group disbanded.[1]

The group should not be confused with the '60s garage rock group of the same name.
