The "8th Day" Was One Of Many Hit Groups Formed By Ex-Motown Writers Holland Dozier Holland In The Late 60's. The Labels "Hot Wax" & "Invictus" Gave Us Some Excellent Pop/Soul Music Like This One From 1971. Making It Up To #28, Here's A Lesson On How To "Beg For Forgiveness"!
Motown With A Twist Of Great Britain! That's The "Flirtations"...An All Female Group From The USA That Hit It Big By Recording In England. With The Help Of Superb Recording Techniques, The Flirtations Achieved The Next Best Thing To Motor City Soul With This "Top Of The Pops" Classic From 1969!
The "Flaming Ember" Are One Of The Best "Holland-Dozier-Holland" Groups From The Late 60's. They Gave Us "Westbound #9", "Mind, Body & Soul" & "I'm Not My Brothers Keeper". Released In 1971 On The HOT WAX Record label, "Sunshine" Has A Nice Mellow Groove And A Touching Story Line. Although It Never Charted, "Sunshine" Is Just A Great Example Of Early 70's Soul.
One Of The Absolute Best Soul R&B Groups Of The 70's, The Spinners Had A Long String Of Hits That Are Still Being Played On Radio Today. Here Is One That Should Have Been Much Bigger..."Wake Up Susan" Was From The Same Album As "Rubber Band Man". It Did Better In England As The "Detroit Spinners" Than It Did Here In The USA.
