YOU'RE SO RIGHT FOR ME - Choice Four

From their RCA album "The Finger Pointers", this song reached #63 on the R&B chart in late 1974.

[@gregmcintyre9936]

Bobby Hamilton lived around the corner from me. I went to Eastern High School with two others. Ted Maduro and I go back to jr high. The Stridells sang Mix It Up. Later they came together to become The Choice Four. Jerry Cummings of Harold Melvin and the BlueNotes came out of Eastern during that time. Our high school talent shows were so good they sold out the Howard Theater in Washington DC Friday and Saturday nights.

Just discovered that Stridells tune not too long ago...Cool to learn that!

[@ericferguson5795]

This song is 50 years old and I'm still Jamin it

[@ronaldbaker5201]

He reminds me of the legendary singers we have from Philadelphia, PA. William Hart (The Delfonics), Russell Thompkins Jr. (The Stylistics) and Teddy "Wizard" Mills (Blue Magic)!

[@thomford3386]

IMO, the Choice Four was on the Wrong Record Label! Just my opinion. Philly, Motown, Atlantic Stax, (any Soul/R&B label), any Label besides RCA. They seem to be more regional then a national push with promotions...Sad! They had Everything to compete with, or were right up there with those Groups ^^^ With Van McCoys Writing & Arrangement and their vocals and harmonies...

[@dcjoe3876]

@@thomford3386 not to forget the choreography

[@patrickwashington3868]

I agree with you 100%! Mr. Baker! His tenor range sounds like Russell Thompkins Jr. & Ted Mills. If TSOP would have signed them up continued record success would have give them major accomplishments Nationwide & Overseas.

[@jamalgraham4561]

a great lead singer and beautiful voice and song, so underrated not mention too often this group was very good

[@agape4tube]

Can't go back to the late 50s, all the 60s, and the early 70s. Too bad😢❤

[@Samantha-iq2nk]

One of my favorite songs, continue to rest peacefully Uncle Charles R. Blagmon Jr 💕💫

[@EJ-jz4kr]

RIP, we had a friend who was friends with him. We went to a couple of parties in the 70s with them & your uncle could dance. We didn’t want to dance with him cause you couldn’t keep up with him. Lol. At the time I didn’t realize he was in the Choice Four or probably before the hit album. We were younger than them, fresh out of high school.

[@reesecups100]

I like this song, first time I've heard it.

[@ericferguson5795]

This song really touches the soul

[@tonirobinson1365]

You're so right for me Bruce. ❤❤

[@vivk102]

Love this DC group. They should have gotten more recognition, That tenor voice is AWESOME, Love always from a DC girl.

[@emanuelgraham9089]

I believe he was killed several years ago ,while he was planning a solo comeback, great voice very unigue tenor

[@ginajones8632]

I've been trying to look up this song for years....my older sister Cynthia used to listen to this song on WJLB in Detroit with then DJ Donnie Simpson and I always loved this song but was never able to catch who sang it. Thanks for this post and the memory. 3/31/19.

[@lascellesreid1358]

Very good song who can be the right one for me love ly group

[@Terry3634]

Beautiful!

[@JohnnyMc]

sO MANY PEOPLE SLEPT ON THIS GROUP!!!!!!!!!!!!!

[@rodneytate5259]

Their first album. Great songs and singing. I loved these guys.

[@robie7789]

I used to hear this song when I was in my teens I didn't know the artists, I rediscovered this song about 8 years ago and from then it is one of my favourite song....Choice4 is so underrated even though they have great harmony and the lead singer falsetto is smooth and on point.

[@cortefielkid1455]

Check out “ Never Lose Never Win” by Chain Reaction from 1976. Another beautiful ballad that didn’t get much air play…

[@cassandrajackson8004]

I love this group.Still sing their songs.My daughter who passed. Love me to sing Angel don't fly away.Love you Choice Four.Cassandra

[@richardsilvera-sw7xm]

will never die....music

[@johnnytd1128]

Russell Thompson was the popular lead tenor of this time, the singer from blue magic was my favorite group, but this song sung by this tenor was the best I ever heard

[@haroldoribeirodecarvalho2334]

I agree with you

[@terencebuie7463]

Russell thompson thank the choice four once he remembered who they was he said in an interview here you tube

[@jduwayne1]

@Johnny Td Russell Thompson didn’t sing with Blue Magic! It was Ted Wizard Mills! Russell Thompson sang lead with the Stylistics...!

[@hawaiianessence]

Sounds a bit like the Stylistics. Oh I love this song it’s literally blowing my mind how magnificent the lyrics are🥰❤️

[@maukus57]

The great Van McCoy of the Do the Hustle fame produced them this group should have gone bigger they posessed beautiful harmonies and all of them could do lead any song they sang

[@loveblind]

remember this so well!!... WOL radio...WDC!....I saw them live at the Carter Barron amphitheatre!

[@merrycollins9881]

such lovely lyrics, when songs had real depth...

[@rodneytate5259]

I was never old enough to see these guys when they came to the Baltimore, MD area but I had the albums. Great Group.

[@barretthilton3811]
