This band is from Memphis Tennessee. The lead singer was Shad Williams. He was Born in 1946. The Drummer was Preston "Bubba" Williams, his brother, who was born in 1948. The band was together from the early 1960's until 1968 when Shad quit the band to go to Seminary. The most popular song by the King Lears is "All I want is You". The reason for this is the popularity of the book A History of Garage & Frat Bands in Memphis, 1960-1975. They had, however, several regional hits including "She's on a Merry Go Round", "Knock on Wood", and "Baby its too Late".
