The Detroit Spinners!

[@tyroneepps4854]

This song is on 🔥!

[@Musicradio77Network]

This song was featured on the 1967 album "The Original Spinners" on the Motown label, a collection of their early hits.

I still remember The Spinners making an appearance at Alexander Hamilton elementary school #145 way back in the early 60s. They sang this song and drove the sisters wild when they tossed some of their promotional photos from the stage. That’s what I’m talking about! PWG.

@ROCKNROLLFAN I know right...they were so amazing.....and the different voices within the group that you hear on this song is superb...

[@ROCKNROLLFAN]

[@e.f.coleman8658]

Love it

[@markmlb]

Loved this - thanks for making it. RIP Bobbie

[@elvinsmith1362]

Two of the best lead singers ever were George Smith of the Manhattans and Bobby Smith of the Spinners. They had unusual voices that you couldn't immitate.

[@loisweiss6678]

So true Elvin Smith

I was 15 when this tune came on the scen.

If you are in the UK, it was first released on a British Columbia label under the group's name "The Spinners", but the label didn't want to use it, because it belongs to a folk group, but they added the name "Detroit" and calling it the "Detroit Spinners". That is why this name got confused with the UK folk group, but the Spinners is an R&B group from the US, the Spinners is also a folk group in the UK.

Always loved this song and both the early and later Spinners. Saw them live back in 1966 and they stole the show. I've always wondered about their group name. Did Spinners refer to spinning records or to those special "spinner" hubcaps you could get from Detroit? Anyway, just an outstanding, unique sound.

[@bmuhamad]

According to the "Unsung" show, it was the hubcaps...

[@jamesa.hamilton269]

That's because early on they went by Detroit Spinners!

[@ChasGreenALRS]

I remember this song! I didn't know it was by the SPINNERS?! really? This was slow grind basement party music!

[@Judeaben]

The Spinners did a lot o' backup work for Gaye, live and in the studio

[@timmy841212]

@warriorkoala Oh I don't know, maybe extra pay? LOL :) He was actually initially signed to Motown as a session drummer...

[@dorethasmith9715]

Bobbie Smith on lead.

[@Muziclvr07]

@ROCKNROLLFAN Yea, especially after Thom Bell's comments about this song. It was the song that knocked him out. :)

[@jas282]

[@lonnie9197]

POOR SOUND QUALITY. 1/20/18

[@Musicradio77Network]

Lonnie Christian That's because it was the original 45 since it was first released in 1961.
