I am not sure if they were a part of the sound of Philadelphia (T.S.O.P.) but I will look into it. mooseface 08-02-2004, 12:32 PM Fred: Allright, I'll eat, you girls rehearse, & Rollo - you sit down and shut up. --- Also, Fred's singing of those "boops" were great when the girls were rehearsing the "Be My Baby" song... storrs19 08-04-2004, 01:38 AM They were indeed part of TSOP (The Sound of Philly). They did the theme for the show "Soul Train" titled TSOP in early 1974. Their big hit was "When Will I See You Again?" from September 1974. They had been performing since teh mid 1960's as a group in Philly. Record collecting is another of my hobbies along with watching way too much TV. :lol: 9114SouthCentral 08-04-2004, 02:43 AM I thought so. I am a young guy, but I was surrounded by that type of music growing up. I still prefer the classics to the current music. Holland-Dozier-Holland must have worked with them. glenny 08-05-2004, 10:09 AM Fred: "You and Lamont managing a singing group??" Rollo: "Yeah!" Fred: "I'm going back to the toilet." |
