Lead singer is William (Poogie) Hart Falsetto king with brother Wilbert Hart who is still alive at 77 years old and friend Randy Cain They defined the Romantic Philly sound .William was the main writer of lyrics and arrangements adding soft violins There is so much to say about this group. Thank you for reacting to them they are fantastic. Suggest "Didn't I blow your Mind This Time" and "Ready or Not Here I Come".. This is a group you should read about .As of July 2022 two original members had passed .William Hart lead singer passed in 2022 and randy Cain passed in 2009 at 63.. . I have loved their romantic soul music all these years thank you I've been waiting for this group. Thank you,. don't forget the Stylistics "You Made Me Feel Brand New" and more..
The absolute best thing about growing up in the 60s, 70s & 80s was that we had ALL the best music (and that includes the 50s music our parents played too)!
@@Mr.Jaquaveon2k Today they sell a look and could basically make anyone sound good with auto tune etc. but these singers from those days were soulful, connected.
The Delphonics are from Philadelphia, their whole Album is great. My favorite song is: Didn’t I Blow Your Mind This Time!” Darn, I can’t remember the lead singers name, gotta look it up, been so long. Thanks you two!👍💜💜
Jay & Amber, William "Poogie" Hart on lead vocals and he was the primary songwriter with songwriter/producer Thom Bell!! Thom Bell is in the Songwriters Hall Of Fame.
It's great that you two love this 'Old" music as much as us Old people who grew up listening to it. It explains why we sometimes have a difficult time with todays music.
The Delfonics were a great band, tracks to check out by them are: "Didn't I (Blow Your Mind This Time)", "Hey! Love", "I'm Sorry", "Ready or Not Here I Come (Can't Hide From Love)", "Tell Me This Is a Dream", "Think It Over", "He Don't Really Love You", "Stop and Look", "I Don't Wanna Make You Wait", "When You Get Right Down To It".
Whilst I do like the Delfonics singing When You Get Right Down To It, I actually prefer the version by Ronnie Dyson, possibly because that was the one I heard more on radio here in the UK when I was growing up.
This song "La-La Means I Love You" came out in (1968). And it brought the Philly sound to the world. The Delfonics along with the Stylistics, Blue Magic, Harold Melvin and the Blue Notes with Teddy Pendergrass and the O'jays made "Philadelphia International Records" a world renown name in the music industry. Great reaction to one of the greatest groups in music history. Their music is featured in many movies the latest being Quenton Taratino's "Jackie Brown (1997)" with Samuel L. Jackson, Pam Grier and Robert Deniro.
I met my wife while in high school, 1975. She was a Freshman (14) & I was Sophomore (15). I've been with her ever since. This is my song because it's a beautiful song, but more importantly, My wife's nick name is LaLa! Have it tattooed on my arm.
I read recently that the writer/lead singer was holding his baby boy and his baby looked up at him and said "La La". He looked at his wife, smiled and said "La La means I Love You". And that how the song was born. Baby Talk! It never fails guys!! LOL
“Didn’t I blow your mind this time” is a must.I believe the lead singer has an actual vocal range where he doesn’t need to use a falsetto.Not exactly sure what that means . He passed away very recently.His brother is still living.
I love my rock and pop but I also love soul and R&B and this group and song is the perfect example. I actually get chills listening to the Delfonics, Stylistics and Chi-Lites just to name a few
One of the TOP falsetto vocal groups of all time right here!!!!! Perfect. Check out their hit "Didn't I blow your mind this time." One of the best break up songs ever! Watch them do their thing on Soul Train. Philly soul gave Detroit's Motown a run for their money and it all made for beautiful music. Song begins with a French Horn/Electric Sitar/Xylophone combo! The great Thom Bell's Production. Brilliant!
OoooWeee! One of my favorite groups from the early 70's! Please explore them some more!! Check out "Didn't I blow your mind this time" or "Trying to make a fool of me" or " I'm Sorry" OMG! Love the Delfonics!!
The lead singer is the late William Hart and y'all have got to do more of the Delfonics songs Hey Love Ready or Not Trying to make a fool of me when you get right up to it Think it over Everytime I see my baby, and whatever songs you can find😊
Guys thanks for reacting to one of the best groups from the soul years. Here's a couple of suggestions for the Delfonics You've Been Untrue (1967) Break your Promise (1968) I'm Sorry (1968) Can You Remember (1968) Somebody Loves You Girl(1969) Trying To Make A Fool Of Me(1969) Baby I Love You (1970) Didn't IBlow Your Mind This One (1970) When You Get Right Down To It (1970) Over And Over (1971) Looking For A Girlfriend (1972) Tell Me This Is A Dream (1972 Think It Over (1973) I Told You So (1974) Lying To Myself (1974) Thanks for the great music Jay and Amber 😊
Something about this song always made me think of hangin' out at home on a Saturday night with your special love, cooking dinner together, and slow dancin' with each other while you wait for dinner to finish....just a casual, romantic, KIND sort-of-tune....and, their vocals are just SO GOOD!!! GREAT REACTION, JAY & AMBER!! 'PRECIATE YOU!! 🙂🙂🙂❤❤❤
The Stylistics were similar to the Delfonics (but with more hits). You reacted to one of their songs but I hope you check out more of their music. Perhaps starting with "You Make Me Feel Brand New."
@Derek-jl5nw You Make Me Feel Brand New was me and my then boyfriend's "song." I got to hear them play it live back in the day, at a place called Barney Google's on the upper east side of Manhattan. They turned it into a 10 minute song!
Good Pick guys! I love the Delfonics music, next song by the Delfonics you need to check out is Didn't I blow your mind. Or similar sounding songs that you guys should check out as well like The Moments with Love on a two way street, or Eddie Holiman with Hey There Lonely Girl.
The most beautiful song. I'm a Philly native so I'm very familiar with the Delfonics. I was lucky to see them in concert with The Stylistics. I'm so glad you chose this song ❤
I haven't heard this song in YEARS! I think it is something my dad would listen to. Shows that one should explore what music is out there, and not just in the present.
I hope at the end of my life I get a chance to thank some of these musicians for making my life so wonderful. This music grabs me by the heart and brings me back to places in my past that I treasure.
I was in Jr high when this song came out and I was in Love with the Delfonics. Other hits Didn't I Blow Your Mind, Somebody Loves You, Hey Love, to name a few. The Delfonics are R&B legends and had one of the greatest falsetto singers along with the Chi-lites. Unforgetable 60's-70's music.
I couldn't be any more thrilled and happy that you reacted to this song! Oh my word, it just melts me like butter every time. One of my most romantic faves! Now you just have to do "Didn't I Blow Your Mind"! Please! 😁
One of the greatest songs ever. This is categorized Philly Soul. William Hart was a great singer. I loved this beautiful song the first time I heard in 68, still do, timeless. Didn't I Blow Yr Mind This Time is equally as good out in 1970.
Thank you so much for picking me for a guitar. I’m using somebody else’s computer & I can’t get you guys a reply. Please pick another lucky person. You two are my favorite reactors & I thank you, Jay & Amber, for making my life a lot happier, love you both!👍🎼🎵🎶👏👏👏👏🩵🩵xoxo
I am a 70 's women and I love The Delfonics and The five Stairsteps they're two of my favorite groups of all time and I've seen them performe at least 10 times back in the day at the RKO ALDEN in Jamaica Queens NY, the lead singer of the Delfonics had such a strong voice and his name is William Heart who recently passed away maybe a couple of months ago, such a fantastic group ❤❤❤❤❤
Oh my God this is one of my favorite songs of all time! I’m so happy to see you react to this! This song is nothing short of spectacular. Listen, I’m 53 years old and I have a 15-year-old daughter and she knows this song by heart because her mama plays it all the time. This is such a beautiful song. I love a good full set of too anybody who can sing a falsetto I’m all about it.!
Great Thursday to you Jay and Amber To further add to what other have said, The Delfonics is a great music group from the late 60s / early 70s, with long list of loved hits. Others have already recommended other songs to listen to. They have even given you the names of the group members. My contribution is this. This song is reference in the movie "Family Man" with Nicholas Cage and Tea (Pronounced Teh-Ah) Leoni (Leh-oh-knee). It is a GREAT and endearing holiday film to watch for your movie channel. It also has some other good songs and actors you might recognize. Really hope you get around to watch this Winter Holiday season!! Until then Many warm wishes and Blessings to your family!! Stay Golden!!
This sweet and heartbreaking little song pretty much epitomizes the Philly Soul Sound. Now you can hear where The BeeGees and Hall and Oates got their influences. Another object lesson as to why we oldtimers think today's music is one long dookey stick.
Back when I was a teenager, this was one of the songs we slow danced to. (Nothing like being held by your sweetheart to this song!) No offence to the music you have today, but we really had the BEST! So much feeling in the words and the melody. And the vocals were on spot! We were so blessed to have these singers.....❤❤❤
See, This is what I'm talking about long legendary 🎶 this song is over 55 years I remember when this song was released all their songs and albums are off the hook 🤩 they should have been inducted into the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame along with the stylistics , from the group Major Harris, passed away in 2012 , lead singer of The delfonics just recently passed away in 2022 William " pookie. "Hart , The last surviving group member Wilbert Hart is still performing , one of my favorite old schooler's music 🎶 group. Old schooler's music never dies.
I read in the comment section of another reactor who did this song, the Lila comes from the lead singer is a little girl. She was little and couldn’t say I love you to her dad so she said Lala. That’s how he came up with this song Lala means I love you❤
Absolutely love this song! The falsetto 👩🏻🍳💋. Yall should check out Brenton Wood, I’m sure you’ll like him “Gimme little sign” “Baby You Got It” “I like the way you love me”
You need to see the video.. They are amazing.I was born in 1955, and i got to hear all of the good music from back in the day. This is one of favorite love songs.
Thanks you for your words about Philly's contribution to Soul Music ~ you brought tears of joy to old man's eyes remembering those days when local labels tapped into a goldmine of talent ~ Walnut Street Sounds were heard everywhere ~ Delfonics was only one of manySoul Groups that made AM radio great & generating instant sing alongs on corners all over that made it fun growing up in Philly
Oh, yeah. One of those fabulous guilty pleasures. Hart's voice is just beautiful and his diction is crystal clear. I was in High School about then and this song was requested from every DJ at every dance.
Delfonics and The Stylistics. Two groups you can never go wrong with.
And the Chi-Lites!
I don't think they have reacted to I'm Stone in Love with You by The Stylistics yet. Heard it the other day.
Two of Philly’s greatest.
Don’t forget Eddie Holman. “Lonely “Girl. Big time falsetto
YES
Lead singer is William (Poogie) Hart Falsetto king with brother Wilbert Hart who is still alive at 77 years old and friend Randy Cain They defined the Romantic Philly sound .William was the main writer of lyrics and arrangements adding soft violins There is so much to say about this group.

According to Wiki, Wilbert is still alive.
Didn't I Blow Your Mind This Time is absolutely 💯 FIRE
Stylistics You Make Me Feel Brand New Same Same 🔥
Ready or Not Here I Come... need to hear it again right now... was it covered by a lady in the 90s? 😂
Fugees? Prob a diff song😂 about to find out!!!
The absolute best thing about growing up in the 60s, 70s & 80s was that we had ALL the best music (and that includes the 50s music our parents played too)!
Agree 100%...love that I grew up with the best music 🎶 🎵
Well what happened
@@Mr.Jaquaveon2k
Today they sell a look and could basically make anyone sound good with auto tune etc. but these singers from those days were soulful, connected.
The Delphonics are from Philadelphia, their whole Album is great. My favorite song is: Didn’t I Blow Your Mind This Time!” Darn, I can’t remember the lead singers name, gotta look it up, been so long. Thanks you two!👍💜💜
William Poogie Hart ❤
Love didn’t I. Check out Philly boys, Todd Rungren and Daryl Hall doing Didn’t I on Live at Daryl’s house. Absolutely beautiful and soulful.
Love that song!
I'm suddenly in the mood to play, "Didn't I Blow Your Mind This Time (Didn't I) by this group.💁🏾
For me, I prefer the Philly Sound over Motown. Both are great, but if I had to choose, it’s Philly.
"Didn't I Blow Your Mind This Time" --- Delfonics -- check it out...
That one's even better!
They definitely had class. And the lead singer was William Hart. Another hit for you two to react to is "Didn't I Blow Your Mind this Time"
Love love love that song
The Delfonics catalog is deep. Another hauntingly beautiful song is "Hey Love".
Hey love, open the door, don't cry no more, you're in love.
"Hey Love" is The Dramatics.
And "Walk right up to the sun" 🔥🔥🔥 fiyaahh!! #TheClassics💯💯
@@plynn136Wrong... "Hey love" is Delfonics!! Not sure if Dramatics did a version. Look it up!! ✌️
All these, plus "Break Your Promise," "Trying to Make a Fool of Me," and "When You Get Right Down To It." So rich and sweet.
Jay & Amber, William "Poogie" Hart on lead vocals and he was the primary songwriter with songwriter/producer Thom Bell!! Thom Bell is in the Songwriters Hall Of Fame.
It's great that you two love this 'Old" music as much as us Old people who grew up listening to it. It explains why we sometimes have a difficult time with todays music.
Rick Beato has a great video on why Boomers (and Gen X like me) don’t like modern music. It made me feel much better!
That's the bad part..hard d to find youngins my age who share interest in this kind of music
I can see your “heart bubbles “ Amber. Great choice of a song. Dig deeper into this group you won’t be disappointed.
Omg the delfonics...now you're talking my language. Such a great love song.
As a 12-year old girl when this song came out, it made my young heart beat with dreams of romance and love.
Me tooooooo🎉🎉❤
From my hometown!!! I LOVE, LOVE, LOVE La La Means I Love You! Another gem from my childhood!
♥️♥️♥️♥️♥️♥️♥️
Shoutout to a fellow Philly resident! Really can’t go wrong with this Philly Sound 💕
@@Keykey74 Hey neighbor! Philly in the house!
Sweet Philly Soul baby
Yes lawd 😊
The Delfonics were a great band, tracks to check out by them are: "Didn't I (Blow Your Mind This Time)", "Hey!

Whilst I do like the Delfonics singing When You Get Right Down To It, I actually prefer the version by Ronnie Dyson, possibly because that was the one I heard more on radio here in the UK when I was growing up.
Others to include; Break Your Promise and Somebody Loves You.
Thom Bell was a gift to us all. His songs and productions will live forever.
Don't forget Linda Creed, as well.
This song "La-La Means I Love You" came out in (1968). And it brought the Philly sound to the world. The Delfonics along with the Stylistics, Blue Magic, Harold Melvin and the Blue Notes with Teddy Pendergrass and the O'jays made "Philadelphia International Records" a world renown name in the music industry.

Yay! You found the Delfonics!!! I love this song and so happy you began with it. My favorite is "Didn't I."
I knew even before it started that Amber would be all smiles !!!
I met my wife while in high school, 1975. She was a Freshman (14) & I was Sophomore (15). I've been with her ever since. This is my song because it's a beautiful song, but more importantly, My wife's nick name is LaLa! Have it tattooed on my arm.
That is so sweet and beautiful
Thank You!
Didnt I Blow Your Mind by the Delfonics
Its a must hear!!!!!
Laying in bed, listening to the radio. Dark sky, stars coming out. This song gently sweeping me off to sleep 💤😴💤 ❤
These guys played at a local high school gym back in 1972.. They were great
I read recently that the writer/lead singer was holding his baby boy and his baby looked up at him and said "La La". He looked at his wife, smiled and said "La La means I Love You". And that how the song was born. Baby Talk! It never fails guys!! LOL
Remember smooching on the dance floor to this. Great times. Love this so much. ❤️
@geoff2504 me too!!!!
Another one of those songs that transcends time and has not forgotten, and this is a great group😊
“Didn’t I blow your mind this time” is a must.I believe the lead singer has an actual vocal range where he doesn’t need to use a falsetto.Not exactly sure what that means . He passed away very recently.His brother is still living.
Didn’t I Blow Your Mind is a must!!!
I'm an old punk rocker/prog rock fan from the UK, but this is a song I remember being on the radio in my childhood, I loved it then, I love it now :)
I love my rock and pop but I also love soul and R&B and this group and song is the perfect example. I actually get chills listening to the Delfonics, Stylistics and Chi-Lites just to name a few
William Hart was the lead singer. He sadly passed away last year. His voice was very beautiful and he actually co-wrote this song
My favorite of the Delfonics is Didn't I (Blow Your Mind This Time) The harmony is great!
Wow my husband dedicated this song to me back in the and we've been married for 42 years. Thank you for that.
I keep coming back just to hear this song. LOVE IT! and The Moments Love on a Two - Way Street. I hope you do the Moments one day.
One of the TOP falsetto vocal groups of all time right here!!!!! Perfect. Check out their hit "Didn't I blow your mind this time." One of the best break up songs ever!

I feel sorry for anyone who didn’t grow up with this music. Ahhhh, brings back memories.
One of the most beautiful songs of the Philly Groove Records catalog ❤❤
The lead singer is the late William Hart and y'all have got to do more of the Delfonics songs Hey Love Ready or Not Trying to make a fool of me when you get right up to it Think it over Everytime I see my baby, and whatever songs you can find😊

This is the style you'd hear on a 60s Soul Station too.
These guys put a whole lotta gurls in the mood.
Didn't I blow your mind this time. Another great song of theirs.
:Back in the day - groups knew how to express love and emotion. 🔥🔥👍
Something about this song always made me think of hangin' out at home on a Saturday night with your special love, cooking dinner together, and slow dancin' with each other while you wait for dinner to finish....just a casual, romantic, KIND sort-of-tune....and, their vocals are just SO GOOD!!! GREAT REACTION, JAY & AMBER!! 'PRECIATE YOU!! 🙂🙂🙂❤❤❤
The Stylistics were similar to the Delfonics (but with more hits). You reacted to one of their songs but I hope you check out more of their music. Perhaps starting with "You Make Me Feel Brand New."
Yes you can’t go wrong with the Stylistics
Both groups produced by Thom Bell!!
They would love You Make Me Feel Brand New.
@Derek-jl5nw You Make Me Feel Brand New was me and my then boyfriend's "song." I got to hear them play it live back in the day, at a place called Barney Google's on the upper east side of Manhattan. They turned it into a 10 minute song!
One of my alltime favorites. The sad thing about these amazing oldies is they are far too short.
Good Pick guys! I love the Delfonics music, next song by the Delfonics you need to check out is Didn't I blow your mind. Or similar sounding songs that you guys should check out as well like The Moments with Love on a two way street, or Eddie Holiman with Hey There Lonely Girl.
The most beautiful song. I'm a Philly native so I'm very familiar with the Delfonics. I was lucky to see them in concert with The Stylistics. I'm so glad you chose this song ❤
I love violins when i hear them in a song it does something to me cause the violin isca romantic instrument.
I haven't heard this song in YEARS! I think it is something my dad would listen to. Shows that one should explore what music is out there, and not just in the present.
The harmonies on this song is glorious. Still try to sing the harmonies on this when I hear it, like we used to do when hearing this on the radio
I hope at the end of my life I get a chance to thank some of these musicians for making my life so wonderful. This music grabs me by the heart and brings me back to places in my past that I treasure.
You can't help but sing along to this ole favorite.
They ALWAYS sounds great!!
I was in Jr high when this song came out and I was in Love with the Delfonics. Other hits Didn't I Blow Your Mind, Somebody Loves You, Hey Love, to name a few. The Delfonics are R&B legends and had one of the greatest falsetto singers along with the Chi-lites. Unforgetable 60's-70's music.
I couldn't be any more thrilled and happy that you reacted to this song! Oh my word, it just melts me like butter every time. One of my most romantic faves! Now you just have to do "Didn't I Blow Your Mind"! Please! 😁
When lyrics had meaning.....I'm so thankful I grew up listening to this music.
A soul classic that sounded great thru the radio...
"Didn't I blow your mind this time"... Another slam dunk song by them!...
One of the greatest songs ever. This is categorized Philly Soul. William Hart was a great singer. I loved this beautiful song the first time I heard in 68, still do, timeless. Didn't I Blow Yr Mind This Time is equally as good out in 1970.

In 1968, this was like the first song that kicked off the Philly Soul sound that would soon overtake Motown and dominate the early 70's
Delfonics is one of the GOATS in my opinion.
I second, "Didn't I Blow Your Mind This Time"! Great song
They have GOT to react to that one!!!!!
You all need to check out "Didn't I blow your mind," another great one.
Definitely need to listen to "Didn't I blow your mind this time.
Really has the two of you wrapped up in the emotions and groove
Didn't I Blow Your Mind!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
That song will always blow your mind!!! ❤
When my son was a baby this song was all that would stop him crying.
So good hearing song again. Forgot how beautiful it is. Enjoying your reaction!
I am a 70 's women and I love The Delfonics and The five Stairsteps they're two of my favorite groups of all time and I've seen them performe at least 10 times back in the day at the RKO ALDEN in Jamaica Queens NY, the lead singer of the Delfonics had such a strong voice and his name is William Heart who recently passed away maybe a couple of months ago, such a fantastic group ❤❤❤❤❤
favorite of all time year after year......you kids ....your hearts are so pure. tears of joy from an old dude like me seeing how much u feel it !
I loved this soul from when I was a little kid, I fell in love with it and never fell out. Neither will you.
Finally! They were such an influential group. RIP William "Poogie" Hart. Until his last days, this man could sing.
✌️😁❤️🎶🎶🎶
The best. I love this song. Great wedding song for the 1st dance.
Gotta love Amber's reaction to this. The sweetest I've ever seen from her.
One of my favourite songs, just pure class
Amber you smiled through that whole video!
That song brings back memories like no other from that time period
This is THE falsetto! I was introduced to them through “Didn’t I Blow Your Mind” on the Jackie Brown soundtrack ❤️
Oh my God this is one of my favorite songs of all time! I’m so happy to see you react to this! This song is nothing short of spectacular. Listen, I’m 53 years old and I have a 15-year-old daughter and she knows this song by heart because her mama plays it all the time. This is such a beautiful song. I love a good full set of too anybody who can sing a falsetto I’m all about it.!
Great Thursday to you Jay and Amber
To further add to what other have said, The Delfonics is a great music group from the late 60s / early 70s, with long list of loved hits. Others have already recommended other songs to listen to. They have even given you the names of the group members.
My contribution is this. This song is reference in the movie "Family Man" with Nicholas Cage and Tea (Pronounced Teh-Ah) Leoni (Leh-oh-knee). It is a GREAT and endearing holiday film to watch for your movie channel. It also has some other good songs and actors you might recognize. Really hope you get around to watch this Winter Holiday season!!
Until then Many warm wishes and Blessings to your family!! Stay Golden!!
This sweet and heartbreaking little song pretty much epitomizes the Philly Soul Sound. Now you can hear where The BeeGees and Hall and Oates got their influences. Another object lesson as to why we oldtimers think today's music is one long dookey stick.
now this is tru music here delfonics one my favorite this song takes on a journey.
At last one of my favourite soul songs.
That is a great album. You can't go wrong with any of their songs. They are an excellent group. Soul for your Soul ❤ Thanks so glad to hear it again.
Killer music. Thank you for this reaction. Wonderful, nice. Lovely.
Nothing like Philly soul!!!!!
Back when I was a teenager, this was one of the songs we slow danced to. (Nothing like being held by your sweetheart to this song!) No offence to the music you have today, but we really had the BEST! So much feeling in the words and the melody. And the vocals were on spot! We were so blessed to have these singers.....❤❤❤
Simple song simple soft harmony romantic perfectly written.
See, This is what I'm talking about long legendary 🎶 this song is over 55 years I remember when this song was released all their songs and albums are off the hook 🤩 they should have been inducted into the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame along with the stylistics , from the group Major Harris, passed away in 2012 , lead singer of The delfonics just recently passed away in 2022 William " pookie. "Hart , The last surviving group member Wilbert Hart is still performing , one of my favorite old schooler's music 🎶 group. Old schooler's music never dies.
I read in the comment section of another reactor who did this song, the Lila comes from the lead singer is a little girl. She was little and couldn’t say I love you to her dad so she said Lala. That’s how he came up with this song Lala means I love you❤
Our Band used to play this one and since I was the Youngest and my voice was still in the high range I got sing those high parts LOL Great Old Tune
Absolutely love this song! The falsetto 👩🏻🍳💋. Yall should check out Brenton Wood, I’m sure you’ll like him “Gimme little sign” “Baby You Got It” “I like the way you love me”
Yes! Oogum Boogum Song is also a great one.
You need to see the video.. They are amazing.I was born in 1955, and i got to hear all of the good music from back in the day. This is one of favorite love songs.
Thanks you for your words about Philly's contribution to Soul Music ~ you brought tears of joy to old man's eyes remembering those days when local labels tapped into a goldmine of talent ~ Walnut Street Sounds were heard everywhere ~ Delfonics was only one of manySoul Groups that made AM radio great & generating instant sing alongs on corners all over that made it fun growing up in Philly
Some of their other jams - When You Get Right Down To It, Break Your Promise and Ready Or Not.
I came 68 !! August 5th this was the jam on AM Radio and TV . I want my clothes back !!!
Oh, yeah. One of those fabulous guilty pleasures. Hart's voice is just beautiful and his diction is crystal clear. I was in High School about then and this song was requested from every DJ at every dance.
Producer and Arranger Thom Bell was a genius who helped birth some of the most beautiful music you will ever hear.
