Formed in Philadelphia in 1966, The Stylistics released a phenomenal six hit singles from their debut album, including the soul classics "You Are Everything," "Betcha by Golly Wow" and "Stop, Look, Listen to Your Heart." Original group members and friends since junior high, Herbert Murrell and Airrion Love continue to keep '70s music alive.
Grammy-winning trio The Emotions — are best remembered for their hits "Best of My Love" and "Boogie Wonderland" (with Earth, Wind & Fire). Now Wanda, Sheila and Pamela invite you to join them as they return to the stage and embark on a journey full of love and good music.
Formerly fronted by late singer Harold Melvin, The Blue Notes went from a Philadelphia group into a national sensation thanks to their Grammy-nominated single "If You Don't Know Me By Now" as well as "Don't Leave Me This Way" and "Bad Luck."
Originally formed by five U.S. Army soldiers stationed in West Germany, Heatwave went on to score enduring soul hits that burned up the dancefloor ("Boogie Nights") and warmed hearts ("Always and Forever").
The members of Bloodstone first joined forces as a doo-wop group in 1962. Later, the Kansas City, Missouri natives relocated to L.A., morphed into an accomplished funk band and racked up hits including "We Go a Long Way Back" and the classic slow jam "Natural High."
