[@cinnamonspice4389]

The Sylvers deserves a star ⭐️ on the Hollywood walk if fame behind the talented brother of Leon Sylvers Jr. Lets go give them what they deserve.

[@MusicMatic707]

How can anyone talk about the 70's and not mention the Sylvers. Hell I love them so much.

[@ms.titianabab7133]

This was the last album of hits before the fall of this great group came .. Don't Stop was such a great song. I used to play this album day and night...Man my child hood days were made fun by being a fan of the Sylvers and the Jackson

[@maxxdroid1975]

The group just melted into background and gone on to help brother Leon over at Solar Records.

[@MsTexas73]

+Lee Shepherd But don't sleep on Concept and Bizarre. Both of those albums had some awesome songs. Concept is excellent from the first song to the last song. it just didn't' have any marketing due to legal issues going on between the group and their manager at the time. Bizarre is also a strong album. I can't say anything bad about either of the songs on it. Both of those albums should have gotten MAJOR airplay. It was just foul what happened during that time. Concept should've been a Grammy winner for them or something.

[@melvinmoore6250]

these folks don't really know the sylvers MsTexas73...

[@leewilson9890]

Music biz can be strange...The 2 albums should have been promoted heavy ...why have a group record for a label and put so much work into putting it together,,But then the label you record for not promoting the F out of it ..Making it BIG as possible ?

[@lepoetress]

Wow .... they really put on a show and it is so nice to see them working it, bringing the heat!! Edmund looks so good here, bless and rest his soul. I wonder if they've ever watched themselves on here. I bet they would really be proud of the body of work they've done.

[@isaiahcupil1214]

Boy that Edmund was everything, they all have real smooth coordinated moves

[@corlion29]

That last move edmond pulled off at the end of "dance with me" kills me everytime i see it. He was showing whoever and himself a good time. I loved me some angelia. I can pic her out at a distance!!

[@MissBrooklynLove]

Such a talented family and the harmony was on point.

[@MrThomkat01]

I Remember They Performed Those 2 Songs On A Show Called "SOUL ALIVE", The Host Was DJ Jerry Blodsoul From WBLS, The Show Was Aired On WPIX Channel 11 Back In 1979!!!!!!!

[@marcuscesaire3085]

I realized that as well.

[@jarrettcone8949]

To be honest with you they copy everything the Jackson's did

[@ivyreid7]

Jarrett Cone they were there before the jacksons..... lol you tried. Either way both families are great not fun to compare when it’s like apples and pears, I wishe the Sylvers had as much success, it’s magical then ppl like you say dumb shit like that and ruin it🤦🏽‍♀️😒. My prayers go out to the fam and RIP to mama Sylvers🙏🏽

[@trudy_triad]

@@jarrettcone8949 You're not okay. Do your research

[@merchantsmithimages]

You can see the similarities between them and The Jacksons. Talented families no doubt.

[@luizemediato6987]

Excellent !

[@ChironAce]

I started to get into their music two years and I LOVE IT!!!! I was just coming into the world when they we're cooking. Love The Sylvers!!

[@MD-DLive]

In my opinion their first 3 albums were the best! These are more of their pop/crossover songs! Even Leon, the oldest brother stated that he hated these songs!

[@merchantsmithimages]

They should have never voted Leon out the group. He wrote many of their hits and for others as well.

[@polystylezdotcom]

its in the genes

[@ms.titianabab7133]

I think Edmund Sylvers was handsome and fine at the time but he had a son who name is Jeremy Sylvers, and his son were a actress/actor on the movie that he played on ‘Child’s Play 3’. Then, now, I found out that he’s grown up to be a man as handsome like his dad Edmund... Like WOW!!!

The Sylvers was a family group the air time that they deserve, they were a great group, I always thought they were competition for many other groups that were out there at same time! But Sylvers thank you for your Music contribution to us all to have heard and enjoy your songs! God Almighty your family!

[@katiejus-katie856]

Thanks for sharing My eldest brother has me on this Sylvers’ quest if you will and as I’m listening to Don’t Stop Get Off it resonated that this song is where Zapp’s ‘Do It Roger’ got a part of that jazzy line from. I love it!

[@howard33072]

Uh oh, a new favorite.

[@WayneInSF]

Two things I find interesting on this clip: 1) On "Come Dance With Me" from 2:29 to 2:55, when Edmund is dancing with Angie and Pat, and the funky voice is saying "Rumba...tango...," I remember James lip-syncing that part on "Soul Train" and "Merv Griffin," but he's not doing it here. 2) Whenever the group performed "Don't Stop, Get Off" on TV, James would lip-sync Leon's lead vocal parts. He's doing it here if you really watch, but none of the cameras do a close up during those parts.

[@eternalthruchrist1]

Thankyou for uploading. It's nice to see these performances I missed back in the day. They looked really good!

[@leahcrittle5749]

Good question. He spun around and quickly hooked the mic🎙 onto the rear mic🎙 stand. He retrieved it when he finished dancing with his Sisters. Edmund had some slick moves.🕺🏽

[@johnhill9445]

They were in a Class all by themselves

[@COP20VOW]

@ Hassan, Ed placed his mic in the back mic stand. So his hands could be free to dance with Pat and Angelia.

In terms of albums, Off the Wall was SO great! But the Sylvers voted to let go of Leon-if he continued to write and produce them, no telling how many more hits they would’ve had? The Sylvers went downhill when Leon left. Also, MJ wasn’t doing show stopping performances until his next album, Thriller. MJ had appeal and greatness but he didn’t let loose until Billy Jean.
