The Stylistics

The Philadelphia soul group The Stylistics was one of the distinctive sounds of the 70s. Inducted into the Vocal Group Hall of Fame in 2004, the group had 12 Top Ten R&B Hits in which fans know every word.  Classic songs like “Betcha By Golly Wow,” “I’m Stone In Love With You,” “Break Up To Make Up” and so many others.

“Didn’t I (Blow Your Mind This Time)” gained The Delfonics a Grammy Award for best R&B performance at the 13th Annual Grammy Awards. The Philadelphia soul group has given us great classics like “La-La (Means I Love You),” “Ready or Not Here I Come (Can’t Hide from Love),” “I’m Sorry,” and many others.

Harold Melvin’s Blue Notes

Providing the sounds of Philadelphia soul, Doo-Wop, Disco, and R&B, Harold Melvin’s Blue Notes was founded in the 50s under another name, The Charlemagnes. In 1954, they made the switch to “The Blue Notes” with lead singer Harold Melvin. Now, they tour as the “Harold Melvin’s Blue Notes.”
