I absolutely love them! The beautiful part about old skool artists is that they could "sang". All of the member of this group are so talented. I remember Jeffery and Jody as Soul Train dancers. Now that's old skool!
Shalamar was an American musical group who worked mainly in the 1970s and 1980. The band was created by Dick Griffey and Don Cornelius. They have become an influential trio of dance and also fashion icons and trends. The name "Shalamar" was chosen by Griffey. I danced, and enjoyed the golden age ... Missing!
I still love them! Jeffrey Daniel's accent is kinda cute! This brings back a lot of great 80's memories.....Although Howard needs to take off that bandana, not his best look for sure
@amillionwaysTv Jeffrey Daniels was the main and long-time choreographer of Michael Jackson. Actually he taught him moonwalk and some other things. Most notably, choreography in Bad and Smooth Criminal videos
What would Jody Watley hold a grudge for when she is the most successful to be in Shalamar with more hits and accolades if I may ask? If you ask me it's the other way around What I gather when these peope broke up NONE of them got along with each other sounds like YOU have a Jody Watley grudge after 30 years check her Unsung Shalamar Unfiltered Pt 7 Reunions
you can run and tell howard and the gang this... i love shalamar, love howard, love jef... hell i grew up watching them on soul train....emulating their dancing... but jodys voice and specific presence added magic to what we old folk remember as shalamar...... great performance but it lacks something....
Tony, you gave me lots of nights to remember and I never forgot. My wish is to find you again some day, to know if you are well. Do you think of me sometimes, listening to Shalamar? Heidi
You can tell howards voice isn't as great as it once was, he's straining and he couldn't hit the high notes or do his old grunts, but for a guy touching his 60s that is pretty darn amazing!
Carolyn Griffey (long time friend and fan of the original band, and daughter of Shalamar founder Dick Griffey). - wikipedea... and it wasnt really a reunion performance, it was for an "american idol like" contest show with old music acts... viewers voted for their fav to win hence the tel# @ 3:27. i was disappointed that shalamar didnt win
@MrSexxxy20 Dick Griffey was the founder of Solar Records who signed Shalamar to their his label. He died two months ago after heart surgery and he did Jody and Jefferey wrong
@wasntme1967 Main choreographer? You might want to double check your info. Michael Peters (Thriller, Beat It), Vincent Paterson (Smooth Criminal, Blood on The Dance Floor), Travis Payne (Dangerous Emmy Nomination), Jeffrey Hornaday (Captain EO)..Michael had many teacher dating back to Soul Train (Cooley Jaxson, Geron "Casper" Candidate) the list goes on and Mr. Jackson King of Pop always credited those he really worked with.
Been to long, ya think? To the Originals, each one of you fit perfectly, to the replacements, well, cant really blame them, blame the one responsible for not recognizing true talent, and for Howard and Jody, if you ever read this, as the good word says," PRIDE GOETH BEFORE DESTRUCTION"
well 2 out of three original members is not bad. They still sound like it is still 1982 and maybe we can only hope one day Jody will return to make it three out of three. until then I will still enjoy the current line up
@stilettogroove Do you honestly believe that if Ms. Watley was indeed resentful, that she would share that in an interview? "Oh, yes, I'm quite resentful. I thought I deserved the spotlight for myself". I don't think so. But she is/was indeed talented and I'm a fan. I just know that both she and Howard, being the "lead singers" didn't understand why Jeffrey had so much attention and was actually the favorite in many countries (not the U.S.). Are YOU serious? :-)
@noinwe I have a life and its very full. TH-cam has Your reaction? and Reply, America has free speech. I was simply taking advantage and offering my personal opinions and observations after watching this video as a fan of the old Shalamar, Jody Watley, Howard,Jeffrey, Jermaine and how this was played on on this show in this video. My comments had nothing with who sang this song the best or hating. I heard some soul stirring singing in church this morning. Good singers are a dime a dozen.
look everybody gots to eat i lvoed them them and now t hey are my brethen and yours now can we simply move on if they were hating god knows and thats all that matters maybe one day they will be hungry too and hungrier to make up and unite cause when thats wht it is that what it si
Not on here to argue. This is NOT a "court room". Let's love and respect each others opinions on here and let it be. If you still have something else to say in defense, whatever, but I won't reply anymore. No need to. This is foolish. Peace and Love be with you and yours Always ~
@yongslicer thats what happens.. if you dont use it, u lose it! vocal pro's reckon your vocals are best when you get into your 50's as long as the lungs are well! :) imagine MJ.. he was vocally peaking and then dies!... :S
Why do I feel like sometimes on Yout Tube I'm not allowed to have my own opinion on things? Hmmm?? This IS just MY opinion. And what's up with this acquittal and jury crap?? Is this a case or something and if I say the wrong thing I'll be jailed? Bottom line .... In MY BOOK - no one else's I love H. Hewett. Always have always will. In MY BOOK "he" is the one who makes this group what it is but of course it takes the others to form a GROUP! So glad he eventually went solo. CONTINUED ...
Both Jodi & Howard got really resentful because in Europe and Asia, Jeffrey was the most popular of the three. He wasn't one of the "lead" vocalists, but had flare (fashion wise) and was (is) a great dancer.
@noinwe 'Carolyn is a much better singer than Jody'? Really to who? Jody added to the sound and style. Does Carolyn have hits other than trying to pretend she is Jody? Watching these clips it's obvious they're trying to fake No integrity and desperation imo. As a longtime fan of Shalamar, the Solar label Jody since Soul Train days, HH. Folks need to get their own "shine" the old fashioned way, Earn it. All groups with revolving members make distinction of old and new, not be try to be imposter
@GMANKOOL23 only because tyhats what you ar used to. If she had originally benn the lead singer & took her place, you would say the same thing. She's actually a better singer than Jody, it just people ar used to Jody's voice. I myself think they sound better, because her Ms Griffey's voice is much stronger & that makes the harmony much tighter & fuller.
@noinwe Carolyn? OH, that's my step mother... And I'd appreciate if you'd take your negative comments elsewhere. Because last time I checked, you paid for a ticket to their show, just to criticize. But, thanks for putting money in my mother's pocket ;)
But when they were a group"I" thought in MY OWN OPINION that he was the "voice" of that group because in most songs he was the lead singer. You said and I quote "you're def. entitled to your opinion" well thank you but if you don't like him, I respect that. Please respect my opinion too. Don't know why you even had to come back on my comment and say anything at all? And as for the Chubby chasers remark, must be nice to be perfect and love perfect people only. CONTINUED ...

@nuthinbutclassics Carolyn is a much better singer than Jody Whatley. Jody at best was an average singer, with great songs. If Carolyn was the original singer in Shalamar & Jody came after her, people would be saying the same thing about Jody. Carolyn is not trying to be Jody, that is an extremely ignorant statement. She is just trying to make the song authentic. Carolyn's voice is a little heavier than Jody's, she sounds very good. Just stop hating & get a life.

Doesn't sound like Shalamar without Jodi's voice. I love Howard, but, he wasn't the only voice that made Shalamar what it was.
The girl is quite a hottie..but come on! No one can beat Jody! She's the one and only for sure.
This was my VERY FAVORITE Shalamar song!!!
I absolutely love them! The beautiful part about old skool artists is that they could "sang". All of the member of this group are so talented. I remember Jeffery and Jody as Soul Train dancers. Now that's old skool!
A very nice surprise!! Thanks Shalamar for all dreams I had and I have now by your sound!!!

Hats off to Howard Hewitt...Akron, Ohio's "boy with the golden voice"!
Realmente isto é que boa música....

It was good Jeffery and huet the best
You can tell howards voice isn't as great as it once was, he's straining and he couldn't hit the high notes or do his old grunts, but for a guy touching his 60s that is pretty darn amazing!
SINGING Live IN VOICE, FLASH & BLOOD ... GOOD TIMES ....
good music
+E Messer just recently Checking out Shalamar of Old Check out Howard Hewett on his own Songs excellent
Like Jeffrey Daniels move the creator of pop and lock
WHO REMAIN THE SAME FOR 50 YEARS???? NO one... HOWARD IS STILL GREAT
There would not have been a Shalamar if the group had not invited Howard Hewitt to join them....together they made a great performance!!!!
Carolyn Griffey (long time friend and fan of the original band, and daughter of Shalamar founder Dick Griffey). - wikipedea... and it wasnt really a reunion performance, it was for an "american idol like" contest show with old music acts... viewers voted for their fav to win hence the tel# @ 3:27. i was disappointed that shalamar didnt win

I love Howard but his voice here seems to be strained some. I miss Jody. I think she was the best with the group. They were once the greatest!
Relembrar.
So, Jeffrey has an accent now... LMAO!
I never knew Jeffrey actually sang. I always assumed he was there purely for dancing distraction.
Been to long, ya think? To the Originals, each one of you fit perfectly, to the replacements, well, cant really blame them, blame the one responsible for not recognizing true talent, and for Howard and Jody, if you ever read this, as the good word says," PRIDE GOETH BEFORE DESTRUCTION"
This just shows.. I mean god damn, some women blossom beyond their 20's.. Jeez!

THIS IS NICE....
well 2 out of three original members is not bad. They still sound like it is still 1982 and maybe we can only hope one day Jody will return to make it three out of three. until then I will still enjoy the current line up
@tarunkzzz NO ITS THE BILLY OCEAN MOONWALK!!!!
that ain't Jody!
Great hook. Love that old Stax-synth sound. This female singer is very good.
Just look at Shalamar unsung on TH-cam,

Either way
ditto sexybrownsatindiva and osmiley99!
jody won't come back check out her myspace page :(
I didn't want to like it w/o Jody...but they were damn good.
This was good but it would have been better with Jody Watley but the new girl held her own.
Why do I feel like sometimes on Yout Tube I'm not allowed to have my own opinion on things? Hmmm?? This IS just MY opinion. And what's up with this acquittal and jury crap??

not quite the right mix. ...where Jody at?
Not at all they tried to trick folks smh
Is that Nikki Howard?
Both Jodi & Howard got really resentful because in Europe and Asia, Jeffrey was the most popular of the three. He wasn't one of the "lead" vocalists, but had flare (fashion wise) and was (is) a great dancer.

The lady singing is the daughter of SOLAR record label owner Dick Griffey and his wife Carrie Lucas, herself a SOLAR recording artist.
Sorry to all Jody fans, but I loved it.
So many disrespect the two male performers that is pathetic because they make Shalamar too.
good replacement for Jody...I love Jody W., but hey, she didn't wanna do this...
No
In a way I miss Jody but shalamar sounds great
This group had more problems in the past than most, as why they couldnt stay together, or come together for things like this.
@GMANKOOL23 only because tyhats what you ar used to. If she had originally benn the lead singer & took her place, you would say the same thing. She's actually a better singer than Jody, it just people ar used to Jody's voice. I myself think they sound better, because her Ms Griffey's voice is much stronger & that makes the harmony much tighter & fuller.
lol. why did they sing "Hey Ya"? They got too many hits to be doing covers
I don't know why Jody Watley wasn't there but they jammed without her flawlessly.
Ok... that didn't post well at all! Bottom line.. Jody wants nothing to do with her former group.. Period!
and then Timomatic took the moon walk to a new level
@noinwe Carolyn? OH, that's my step mother... And I'd appreciate if you'd take your negative comments elsewhere. Because last time I checked, you paid for a ticket to their show, just to criticize. But, thanks for putting money in my mother's pocket ;)
oh...and we're talking about 50 year olds.
But when they were a group"I" thought in MY OWN OPINION that he was the "voice" of that group because in most songs he was the lead singer. You said and I quote "you're def. entitled to your opinion" well thank you but if you don't like him, I respect that. Please respect my opinion too.
