The Gems

The Gems

The Gems were a Group that recorded on Chess Records during the 1960's. They were regarded for their beauty by audiences, whenever they performed, but failed to have great commercial success. They also had Minnie Riperton as a member before she became a huge star. Please take a listen here and have a good Wednesday: I'll be there,  Can't you take a hint and That's what they put erasers on pencils for
