'''The Ramong Sound''' was a British R&B, soul and ska band, active from 1965 to 1966.

==Background== The Ramong Sound was a London-based outfit, that featured two black lead singers doing Sam & Dave styled duets, one of them being Raymond Morrison (aka Ramong Morrison<ref name="psychedelicbabymag.com">''It's Psychedelic Baby Magazine'', 22 July 2011 - [https://www.psychedelicbabymag.com/2011/07/pluto-interview-with-paul-gardner-alan.html Pluto interview with Paul Gardner & Alan Warner]</ref>), and the other being a former professional boxer, Clem Curtis<ref name="50 Connect">50 Connect -[http://www.50connect.co.uk/entertainment/music/artist_focus/a_chat_with_the_foundations_clem_curtis A Chat With The Foundations' Clem Curtis]</ref> who had also done some wrestling.<ref>''Melody Maker'', 31 August 1968 - [https://worldradiohistory.com/UK/Melody-Maker/60s/68/Melody-Maker-1968-0831.pdf Page 4 Clem to quit Foundations?]</ref>

Guitar player Alan Warner was an experienced musician, and joined the Ramong Sound after having worked in various bands. He would stay with the group through all of their name change evolutions from Ramongs to Foundations, until he left the Foundations in 1970 to join progressive rock band Pluto.{{fact|date=October 2024}}

==History and career== Group leader Ramong (Raymond Morrison) was looking for backing singers. Clem Curtis's uncle told him about it, and he should give it a try. At this time Curtis' singing experience was more or less limited to singing with his uncle when he came around the house with the guitar. So, Curtis went along and joined up.<ref>''40 Hits, 40 Stories Behind Top Songs of the 1960s and 1970s'', by Rick Simmons (2023) ISBN 978-1-4766-4690-9 (ebook) - [https://books.google.com/books?id=kpObEAAAQBAJ&dq=Ramong%22Clem+Curtis%22&pg=PA183 Page 183 #33 (R&B Charts), "Baby, Now That I've Found You" (1967), THE FOUNDATIONS]</ref> He joined The Ramong Sound as a backing singer.

It appears that the original lead singer, Ramong Morrison (Raymond Morrison), whom the group was named after, was imprisoned for six months in January 1967 for assault,<ref name="auto1">''Melody Maker'', 27 July 1968 - [https://www.worldradiohistory.com/UK/Melody-Maker/60s/68/Melody-Maker-1968-0727.pdf Page 4 ''MORRISON CLAIM'']</ref><ref name="Original Pluto"/> the group attempted to recruit Rod Stewart, but Stewart had other plans.<ref>''It's Psychedelic Baby Magazine'', 22 July 2011 - [https://www.psychedelicbabymag.com/2011/07/pluto-interview-with-paul-gardner-alan.html Pluto interview with Paul Gardner & Alan Warner, You were in The Foundations and recorded four albums.]</ref> Later, a friend of the band called Joan suggested Arthur Brown as a replacement.<ref name="Alan Warner">Alan Warner Website – [http://www.alan-warner.com/10102/info.php?p=4&pno=0 THE FOUNDATIONS]</ref> When Brown walked in for his rehearsal at the Westbourne Grove bar, he saw the drummer was bent backwards over the bar with Clem leaning over him with a spear at his throat.<ref>''Louder'', 15 January 2004 - [https://www.loudersound.com/features/arthur-brown-fire-starter Arthur Brown: Fire Starter by Hugh Fielder]</ref> Contrary to his wild image he had with The Crazy World of Arthur Brown, he was very straight when he joined the band and he didn't drink, smoke or take drugs.<ref name="thelittleboxoffice.com">The Little Box Office - [https://thelittleboxoffice.com/princess/event/view/183491 The Foundations, Story of The Foundations By Ralph Gowling, Deputy Editor of The Beat magazine]</ref> While with the group, Brown and Curtis would do songs separately as well as together in Duets.

The group emerged in early 1967 with a new horn section consisting of Dominican trombonist Eric Allandale and Jamaican saxophonists Pat Burke and Mike Elliott filling roles once held by Mike Falana and the other horn player(s). Drummer Tim Harris filled the position once held by Lyndsay Arnold, and Clem Curtis was now the lead singer.{{Citation needed|reason=Ref needed|date=September 2023}}

The group had been living in a former gambling den called The Butterfly Club which they ended up running. They were eventually forced out by a protection racket gang and had to move next door into what was described as a squalid disused mini-cab office.<ref name="psychedelicbabymag.com"/>

At some stage the group was discovered by Ron Fairway who introduced them to Barry Class.<ref>The Strange Brew - [https://thestrangebrew.co.uk/interviews/the-ways-and-means/ The Ways and Means]</ref><ref name="psychedelicbabymag.com"/>

== Later years == ===Raymond Morrison=== Having completed his six-month prison sentence, Morrison took legal action against The Foundations. As reported in the 27 July 1968 issue of ''Melody Maker'', Morrison took it to court in a bid to put a freeze on a proportion of the group's earnings. Morrison claimed that he had discovered the talent of the group. But with his association to the group having been severed by his imprisonment etc., the Judge who heard the case, Judge Stamp said that he couldn't understand how he could have any share or interest in a song ("Baby Now That I've Found You") that came into existence after he had severed his connection with the group.<ref name="auto1"/>

Raymond Morrison would record a single "Girl I Want to Hold You" backed with "Money Can't Buy Life", released on the Sugar label in January, 1970. It had a short review by Chris Welch of ''Melody Maker''. Noting Morrison's distinctive vocals and the bright backing beat, he referred to it as ''A sort of bluebeat come reggae come throat pastille boogaloo''.<ref>''Melody Maker'', 31 January 1970 - [https://worldradiohistory.com/UK/Melody-Maker/70s/70/Melody-Maker-1970-0131-OCR.pdf ''NEW POP SINGLES BY CHRIS WELCH'', RAYMOND MORRISON: "Girl I Want To Hold You" (Sugar)]</ref>

====Hawk & Hyfan Records==== Later in the late 1970s, Morrison founded his record label, Hawk Records located at 243 Finchley Road, London NW3. He ran it with his wife Tamara.
