In the 1950s, Covay also sang as member of the doo wop act The Rainbows, a DC institution that at various times had also featured soul legends Billy Stewart and Marvin Gaye. Long-time DC denizen Don Convay was a gifted man when it came to music and this shows in his 1977 album Funky Yo Yo. His voice is just beautiful, rich, strong and charismatic whatever he does.
