R.I.P. Henry Fambrough

You probably have never heard of Henry Fambrough. But chances are you have heard of the group he sang with.

I had no idea The Spinners went back to the mid 50's. I was off two years trying to guess when Rubberband Man came out, I thought it was 1974, not 1976. I guess all of us have memory lapses like Joe Biden.

I listened to so many types of music in the 70's I could not count them all, even disco,...


More like I should say I tolerated disco, the discos were where the attractive women were at. I was not of legal age to go to discos, but looked older than my age and the "we card under 30" rule was not in effect back then. There was a place called Ichabod's down the street from my High School, everyone called it "pick a bods". I thought rap aka hip hop would burn out as quick as disco did, I unfortunately was wrong. I liked some of the old stuff, but the new blows. What talent does it take to write a song with the N-word in it 100 times?

Indeed! They were one of the great ones. Man...am I getting old! I literally grew up up with the Spinners.
