Ex-Checkmate Sonny Charles took an early ride on Don Cornelius' 'Soul Train'

I used to catch the Checkmates frequently while in Las Vegas. Most recently was in Az Charlies - Boulder of all places.

I, too, loved the Checkmates and remember first seeing Sonny Charles perform at the Hacienda which is no more. Also saw him at the Sands, the LV Hilton, and Arizona Charlies on Boulder to name a few. Glad to hear that he is well and still performing! Thanks a bunch for posting the article.
