Has anyone ever heard of Bill playin' with
Mike Renolds and The Infants of Soul ?

Their 2nd single from 1966 was released under the name
'Mike Renolds and Bill Payne'
www.borderlinebooks.com/us6070s/r3.html#Mike Renolds and The Infants of Soul
"A Texan garage band, possibly from El Paso."

( When did Bill leave Texas ? )

If it is correct you'll find 1 track on

He once told me that at an early age (grade school I think) his immediate family moved from Moody, Tx (near Waco-"Strawberry Flats") to Southern California, which is basically where he grew up. He still has mucho family there, including Grandparents (as of ten years ago), and visits when he can. Have never heard of any connection with El Paso, but that doesn't mean there isn't one.
Have not heard of these releases, but will now look for em.
