Description
Relive classic R&B hits of the seventies when three amazing groups perform. THE SPINNERS, recently nominated to the Rock n Roll Hall of Fame, dominated the Billboard charts throughout the 1970s with 11 top 20 pop singles, including seven top 5, and 14 top five R&B hits, including six reaching #1. The Spinners stage show is dynamic, even when they are singing their ballads: โIโll Be Around,โ โCould it Be Iโm Falling in Love,โ โOne of a Kind (Love Affair),โ and โThen Came You. โFour incredible vocalists sing lead and amazing harmonies, and they will have you on your feet with such high-energy songs as โWeโre Havin a Party,โ โRubberband Man,โ โCupidโ and โWorkin My Way Back to You.โ
SONNY BIVINS MANHATTANS deliver romantic lyrics and astounding vocal harmonies. โKiss and Say Goodbyeโ was #1 on both the pop and R&B charts, and, in 1980, โShining Starโ won a Grammy and was top five on both the R&B and pop charts. โOne Life to Liveโ and โThereโs No Me Without Youโ both hit #3 on the R&B charts. The Manhattans had an amazing 45 hits on Billboardโs R&B charts, including 12 top 10 smashes.
Opening the show are The Intruders. Working with legendary producers Kenny Gamble and Leon Huff, the Intruders were pioneers in creating โThe Sound of Philadelphia.โ โCowboys to Girls,โ their signature hit, was #1 R&B and #6 pop. Other hits include โ(Love is Lake a) Baseball Game,โ โIโll Always Love my Mammaโ and โTogether.โ
Donโt miss three great acts on one unforgettable night of countless R&B Classic hits.
