Hailing from Saginaw, Michigan, The Ringleaders first recorded for George and Ernie Leaner in April of 1966. Their sole release for M-Pac! Records eventually caught on in the Northern soul scene, and today copies sell for hundreds of dollars. Adding to the group's lore, two acetates with the unreleased songs, “All of My Life” and “This Is Goodbye” surfaced in the UK in the 1980s, becoming holy grails of sorts and cementing the Ringleaders as Northern soul heavyweights.
