Roscoe Robinson, born on May 22, 1928, in Dermott, Arkansas, is an American singer known for his contributions to gospel and soul music. In the 1950s, Robinson began his career as a gospel solo artist with Trumpet Records, also performing with groups such as The Five Trumpets, Highway QCs, and The Fairfield Four. His early gospel work laid the foundation for his distinctive vocal style, which would later translate into his soul recordings. In the 1960s, Robinson transitioned to secular soul music, marking a significant shift in his career. He released several notable singles during this period, including "That's Enough" (U.S. Number 62, U.S. R&B Number 7). In the 1980s, Robinson returned to gospel music, releasing solo albums and collaborating with notable artists such as The Blind Boys of Mississippi. His later works include So Called Friends in 2004, which further cemented his status as a versatile and enduring artist in both the gospel and soul genres.
