Their string of smooth soul hits included “I’ll Be Around,” “Mighty Love,’ the Dionne Warwick collaboration “Then Came You,” a No. 1 hit on the Billboard 100.
RedfernsCLEVELAND, OHIO - The Spinners, one of the rock era’s classic R&B vocal groups, got its start in Detroit with Motown but didn’t hit its stride until hooking up with Philadephia-based producer and songwriter Thom Bell and being immersed in the lush and lovely Philly soul sound. That would lead them to chart success, singing their way into the hearts and lives of many a R&B and pop listener.
The group will be inducted into the Rock & Rock Hall of Fame this November in ceremonies at the Barclays Center in Brooklyn, N.Y. If you purchase a product or register for an account through one of the links on our site, we may receive compensation.
