Great R&B Groups: The Spinners

The Spinners
 

       The Spinners has so many hits, it's hard to believe they went without a hit during the 1960s, despite being signed to Motown. They hold a special place in many hearts and is the soundtrack to a lot of memories; have a fun Wednesday and please take a listen here: I'll be around , It's a shame , Could it be I'm falling in love , How could I let you get away , Sadie , Love don't love nobody , Then came you (with Dionne Warwick) , The Rubberband man and Working my way back to you
