The Rationals formed in 1964 and first recorded a single for a local label, A2 Records, in 1965. After scoring a local hit with the tune “Gave My Love” they recorded a cover of Otis Redding‘s “Respect“. This won them a contract for national distribution by Cameo/Parkway,  Unfortunately, the record didn’t break everywhere in the U.S. at the same time, so it had a tough time making a decent showing on the national charts. Several further singles, including “I Need You” and “Hold On Baby”, were successes in Michigan . Lead singer Scott Morgan was asked to join Blood Sweat and Tears, but he declined the offer.] The group’s only full-length, a self-titled effort, arrived on Crewe Records at the beginning of 1970, and the group split up soon after; Morgan went on to play with several other Detroit-area groups over the next three decades, including Sonic’s Rendezvous Band (with Fred Smith of MC5) and several of his own bands.
