He then made further recordings including "Raining In My Heart" for a record label run by Bob Shad, who allegedly forgot Nelson's name and released them as by Peppermint Harris.[2]\r\n\r\nIn 1951 he moved to Modern Records in Los Angeles, California, and had his biggest R&B hit with "I Got Loaded", which reached number one on the U.S. Billboard R&B chart in November that year.[2] However, later releases on various small Southern California labels were less successful.\r\n\r\nHe later recorded in Shreveport, Louisiana, and worked in Sacramento and New Jersey, before recording a final album on the Home Cooking label in 1995.[2]\r\n\r\nHe died in Elizabeth, New Jersey in 1999, at the age of 73.[1]
