Loved Rubberband Man. Saw them perform it on The Tonight Show dancing with large rubber bands. So cool.
Rubber Band Man.
It’s A Shame.
I liked their different sound. Games people play was so original.
Loved Could it be I’m falling in love.
Some of those guys back then, the sentimentality of those songs, so nice.
Oddly enough the Spinners didn’t mention Bitches or Ho’s in their love songs.
Rest in peace, Henry, and thanks for all the beautiful memories you and the other Spinners helped make over the years.
Here's another one Henry sang lead on:
Had I not been working in a factory where people are allowed to play their favorite audio (I can't say 'music') I wouldn't have learned that a form of rap has actually ditched the musical element entirely in favor of a low bass, drum and rhythm guitar as an afterthought for some profane, inane and self-worshiping excuse for poetry that doesn't even rhymes in a monotonous spoken word manner (covering for the fact they can't sing) obviously designed to lull listeners into a none-thinking state while absorbing hypnotic suggestions ("Stay on the plantation. Massa's not kicking you out for the Replacements. Continue to pay no attention to how we've lied to you all this time.")
Sadly the fans of this garbage think they're edgy and rebellious because of the profanity and overuse of the dual-standard 'bad' word "nigger'. After citing a list of white people achievements English comedian Ricky Gervaise pointed out "Hey; we (whites) invented that word, too!" I got sick of hearing it played so much from idiots who were wrongly told they were talented.
My awesome high school English teacher said there's too many better words for description than cursing. "Profanity is a crutch for the intellectually lazy and an insult to those who tried to bring them up better".
I'm offended that Martin Luther King's truly noble vision of a society where we're all judged by our qualities over our appearance has been reversed in Diversity, Equity and Inclusion - the latest push for replacing Merit and Constitution with Socialism and the inevitable Tyranny (and mass murders) that always follows.
It's obvious the evil party is in total panic over their inevitable being dragged out into the light of justice and talk openly of assassinating our guy. I ask "What do we do about that?" should they pull it off.
I was surprised to find that one of the Four Tops was not African-American. Bangladesh
Like everyone of like mind, I've had a blessed life! RIP Henry Fambrough.
Thanks for the great music, Henry; RIP.
One of my favorite all time bands.
Soul Train would come on after Saturday morning cartoons and I would always watch it.
God, I’m getting old!
