Louisiana native Roosevelt Nettles walked away from a promising recording/entertaining career more than 30 years ago and doesn't really know why. While living in Alabama he assembled the Flames, a doo wop group, before joining the Air Force in 1958 where he formed another non-recording group of doo woppers, the Enchanters. A member of Special Forces, Nettles received orders to go to an Air Force base in Chandler, AZ, then a base near Phoenix. He fell in love with Arizona and made it home after his military duties ended in 1962.
