a.k.a. Theodopholos George Odel. One of the best stage dress designers, he has provided costumes for a wide variety of people from Muhammed Ali to any number of soul singers, and his long standing tailoring business in Atlanta was widely heralded. He has also earned a living as a dynamic and show-stealing MC whose dancing, sharp dressing and enthusiastic warm-up singing was always very popular with female fans. (Discogs) On that basis, not quite Obscure but somewhat short of anything higher. So, I guess, Acceptable. File under: Singing Tailors.
