According to a show biz article in Jet magazine May 06th,1965 page 63, Phil Colbert was referred to as a French Canadian black. He was signed to Mercury by Andy Stroud (Nina Simone's husband). He was, very briefly, a member of Billy Ward And His Dominoes in 1958 but didn't last long enough to record with them. According to Marv Goldberg's essay on the group he was fired after they did some dates at the Golden Hotel in Las Vegas around spring 1958. It looks as if he abandoned his singing career to work in promotion - he was appointed the R&B promotion manager for SSS International in June 1967 but didn't last long there as he was working for Jubilee by early 1968. He was one of the promotion men for Invictus in 1970 then moved back to New York in 1971 to work at the short-lived New York Sound label. In January '72 he was working for Sonny Lester's Groove Merchant label as their promotion man for the East Coast and later, in 1976, was made R&B promotion manager for the London Records presumably working on the Olympic Runners and Hodges, James And Smith. It is doubted that lasted very long as the US London label was on its last legs by that time. The trail goes cold after 1976. It's guessed he long since retired from the music business.
