BREAKING NEWS: The Spinners are inducted into the 2023 Rock and Roll Hall of Fame.

Philippe Wynn took the last verse and ran with it. I couldn’t do nothing but smile through it all. That man knew he could sing and shout. The Spinners left us with some great music. R.I.P. to all of them. 🙏🏾🤎

Bobby Smith's vocals - incredible. Smooth and soulful.

Someone please bring this kind of music back. I agree, the 70's had the best music.

Finally being inducted into the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame. It took four tries, but they finally made. Well deserved.

Bobby Smith, what a voice R.I.P. Bobby.

Bobbie Smith is a very underrated singer. Smooth voice, smooth moves. And Phillipe Wynne brought it home. Perfect combination

Im a black south african and I HAVE to take my hat off for my other Black sisters and brothers in America for pure talent..Your music never dissapoints

The Spinners-the best of the best!

This is when music was music and the men wore nice suits and dressed like gentlemen becaue many of them were gentlemen. They were nice guys back stage and they could really sing! I am honored to have grown up in the 1970s. Last Great decade for black music.

In my humble opinion - the finest SOUL band that ever graced the earth. Outstanding performance - wish I could have been there!!

Felipe Wynn was one of the greatest front men in the history of music. Watching and listening to him was soul music but it felt like you were in church.

The Spinners were pure class.

Brings tears of joy. Pure beauty. So happy to remember those times.

I’m 67 this music just makes me so good. Or maybe these guys were just pure class. Thank you for posting

The Spinners are just amazing. Between Bobby & Philippe's voices and Thom Bell's amazing sound that he created with them, it just boggles my mind that they never won a Grammy and were never inducted into the RRHF. I say, since the band is still around and still with two original members, it's time for the Grammy's to do right by them and give them a Lifetime Achievement award or something. Make it happen!

R.I.P. To Henry Fambrough. The last man standing who passed away last week. 🙏🏾🤎

Musical artists were so classy back in the day in both lyrics and group presentation. I can't imagine seeing a group come out in suits these days. The Spinners are one of my fave 60s-70s groups and this is one of their best songs, IMO. Such sweet lyrics.

Ahhh early 1970's Spinners. We won't see the likes of this ever again.

I RESPECT THE SPINNERS SO DAMN MUCH.

As a blond-haired white kid born in 1964, in retrospect one of the best things that happened to me was having a dad who was in the Navy and was exposed to lots of different music. I grew up listening to 8 track tapes my dad had like the Spinners, Booker T and MGs, etc.. This is good stuff.

Philly Soul. Thom Bell is a Genius

I love Bobby Smith's voice. He MADE the Spinners, period; but the brother with the glasses on the end, Philippé Wynne (sometimes called "Walker") also had a beautiful voice and did the lead on "How Could I Let You Get Away." RIP to both Wynne (1984) and Smith (2013). They both contributed to wonderful memories from my childhood of music and books--my entire life then and now . . .

5:02 I agree with Phillipe "🎶♬ Get good to me! ♬🎶"

Just an awsome time with music like this-There should be no racism anywhere.

Bobby Smith was killin' it

People, we are priviledged to bear whittness to this level of talent. nothing like this exists today

I was born in 71, but I have older siblings that exposed to the hits throughout my childhood. I still listen to this to this day. This brings back memories!

I love the Spinners! Classic 70s.....

With Philippe Wynn the Spinners were one of the best groups around. We don't get music like this today. It is surely missed.

REMEMBERING ROBERT "BOBBY" SMITH (APRIL 10, 1936 - MARCH 6, 2016) [04/10/2017]

Loved the idea of them having 2 vocalists who sound 99% similar.

Young brothers wanting to play music, take note! These guys worked their asses off and their music has lasted AND GROWN IN popularity over the last four decades. True grit, true work, true sweat, true soul. Long after hip-hop is forgotten, someone will be listening to The Spinners. Just a thought.

One of the most exciting endings to a performance ever ... Awesome AWESOME

Yeah!!! people that grew up during the 70's have to be proud of this level of talent and performance by a generation of artists, musicians ad overall innovative rhythm.....that it is until today the bases, the grounds , the core for modern music, not only for hip hop and R&B music and not only for Black Generations to come, but this artestry it serves as inspiration for many genres throughout the world......I am proud to be Peruvian American but as Latino, and I hope to speak for every Latin beat sound that we listen to,.....Disco Era probably remains as one of the best things that happen to music....if not the best.

Spinners picked up the Motown mantle for the 70's and were such a part of my youth - trip down memory road....70's soul carried the torch.

I miss those days in the 70's. Durham High Class of 1973.

Incredable talented group of superstars, glad I grew up with them on the radio

I remember being 13 yrs old, parents just bought a house in a small Oklahoma town where I grew up my whole life. At 13 I had a transister radio, with the one "ear plug", and there were no FM stations, (what was that?) this was 1973 & the clearest station was W,,,,U,,,,L,,,,S,,,,Chicago! Listening to the Spinners, they had me singing along with every song. I would pretend to be the "lead singer" & would sing all night long. Man, this was class! I can still pull up one of their songs and sing along as if it were yesterday. What a priveldge it was to have grown up listening to such great artists such as the Spinners. "Make a blind man talk about seein again, woo baby, one of kind,,,love affair was", Oh yeah! THE BEST TIMES!

Some members have passed away RIP, but the music lives on--------pure talent.

Spinners always were so full of good energy in their songs.

EPIC CLASSIC!! I still love The Spinners after all these years 💙💙💙💙💙

What a joy to watch them perform. They looked they were just totally into the moment, watching over ten years of sweat and labor finally pay off. The Spinners were a great part of music in my growing up years.

Spinners fan for life still here jamming 💃🏽🎉💃🏽💃🏽🎉🎉. Great dancers and harmonizers…those melodious 5 chords just melts my heart❤

Love this raw footage. New song, no studio, you can hear each part and the band. LOVE IT! I don't know how the audience just sat there for long before they really got into it. I'd have been going nuts from jump start. This is real music, real musicianship--joy!

This song brought me through some ruff times, away from my girl in a foreign land serving my country. But this song kept me straight. Thanks Spinners

Amazing music.. one of my all-time favorite groups.

Wish I had been in that audience-great song and an awesome performance! 10/10 boys

Bobbie Smith is REALLY feeling this groove.

Beautiful song by a wonderful group.. Classic !!

One of my favorite spinner songs

r.i.p. bobby smith, you are missed

You can be sure I will never let you down. Greets from Venezuela!!!

On this day in 1973 {February 25th} "Could It Be I'm Falling In Love" by the Spinners peaked at #4 {for 2 weeks} on Billboard's Hot Top 100 chart; it had entered the chart on December 24th, 1972 at position #79 and spent 15 weeks on the Top 100 {and for 6 of those 15 weeks it was on the Top 10}... And on February 4th, 1973 it reached #1 {for 1 week} on Billboard's R&B Singles chart... Between 1961 and 1995 the group had twenty-nine records on the Top 100; with six making the Top 10 and two reaching #2, the two #2s were "The Rubberband Man" {for 3 weeks in 1976} and "Working My Way Back To You/Forgive Me, Girl" {for 2 weeks in 1980}...

Goodbye Bobbie Smith. You will be missed. Thank you for gracing us with your voice and music. I love The Spinners!

This song just melts my heart and this performance is pure fire! Definitely legendary and the vocals by Bobby Smith and Philippe Wynn with Thom Bell's production on the studio version is magic. This song reminds me of my very young and beautiful mom who used to sing this while I was riding shotgun with her in the front and my little brother and sister were in the back. ah the 70s- sweet, sweet, memories of days gone by. The long overdue nomination into the Rock and Rock Hall of Fame announced today brought me back to look for this gem. Thanks for posting.

That was truly wonderful.

Oh my god...going through all songs from the 70s and finding who actually played the soundtrack to my childhood!

I was 12 years old in 1973 and what I like to observe in these performances from the 1970's is the joy and happiness of the singers when singing their songs it's so refreshing to see smiles on faces.

The Spinners give me joy and lifts my spirit ..so good for my soul ❤️

so great to hear music that has meaning and is everlasting.

This song never fails to lift my spirit…

I loved this song in middle school and I love this version today. What a relief, no lip-sync!

that is why it is up to people like me and you to keep this music alive by playing it all the time. great music will never fade or die

class act.so many great songs.love the spinners

The Power Of Love !

Props to Bro Ellis Haizlip, the Producer and main host of SOUL! He insisted that most performances be live. Amazing that high quality culture like this was available nationwide on a weekly basis via broadcast TV! Can we replicate this in 2018? As for the Spinners, Superb!!! They turned the joint out!

I feel the excitement of being a kid again when I hear that song. God bless the Spinners!

One of the happiest groups of the era,all their songs were fun and uplifting…wonderful!

Thank you Spinners for a song that touches my heart and makes me want to dance like crazy.

Phillipé Wynne and this energetic outro. TALK ABOUT A PERFORMANCE!!

Spinners will always be a personal favorite of the 70’s . Their songs and enthusiasm performing them was uplifting. Can’t help but smile and groove watching this

wonderful an actual live performance and they all sound great!

I saw them three times and once and got to sing along with them too as the y handed their mikes to those in front!

I agree... good times... No auto tune, just pure talent! This version with Hammond is amazing!

I recently retired from a middle school and to hear some of the kids singing songs like this is amazing. They'll tell you that their great grandmother or grandmother plays this music all the time and they love it. 😃😃

Classy and talented singers. Love the song! 😍❤👍

Mr.Wynn took it too church yall.!!!!

Aah .... beautiful memories. Loved this record from back in the day!

TIMELESS music loved their sound for years, nobody had their CLASS and SOPHISTICATION. They were just goodllooking, well dressed and had smooth vocals.....

I absolutely love these guys forever!!!!

I'm a 70's kid and I absolutely love this group and this song! Brings back wonderful memories of my childhood!

Honoring and remembering Henry Fambrough who passed 2 days ago at the age of 85. He was the last remaining original member of the Spinners. Great music and man who will not be forgotten. RIParadise Henry. This music is so nostalgic and reminds me of family members who are now long gone. Many great memories along with great music. And those musicians also were rocking the house. Such excellent live focals.

I love this video. They switched it to an entirely different arrangement by the end of the song. The crowd was into it, it was just perfect. I like this over the album or any other live version I have heard.

Ahhhhhh...... the good old days when live versions sounded as good or better than the recordings! No auto tune, no lip sync, no tracks - just pure talent!

I thought this was probably the most beautiful piece of music I had ever heard....it was my number 1 for years. This group were amazing......they were the best on Atlantic records....

Excellent song, excellent performers!!!!

I could not imagine my life without The Spinners. for 40 years, i have been listeing to their music. Up to now, i still keep playing their Albums or CD's giving me so much love inspirationas and high energy. One of the greatest dis appoinments in my life is when Thom Bell stopped producing music for them. Though i like all their music even after Thom Bell beaouse i got addicted to their soulful voices. Thank God i grew up with these performers

Starbucks coffee shops in Japan are playing this number recently. While listening to the audio is still fun, watching this video is much more enjoyable. As other users commented, their performance is energetic and entertaining. Good music survives. Thanks for sharing this!

THIS is real live singing young folks! No Auto Tune! Lol

Many thanks my dear friends black music at its finest God I love the spinners are the greatest bands I’ve ever heard in my life thank you from Costa Mesa California

Yeah, I'm only 29 and my Dad exposed me a lot to this music which is what I mostly listen to. Life was also a lot tougher to with politics and the Vietnam War.

A celebration of new-found love supported by confident, focused choreography. Beats so many acts today who get sloppy or flame out under the influence.

Love the way they clappin in harmony and in sync in this. Looks like theyre having a good time. This is when music groups had great stage preasence and class. The spinners is one of my all time favorites.

CLASS + TALENT par excellence......off the charts

What an example of black BEING beautiful IT doesn’t get a whole lot better than the spinners we love these guys back here in California. Mesa thank you so much my friends who love the spinners thank you

This is REAL GREAT music! It cannot be topped! (No pun intended) I am almost in tears as I write this, because of the intensity of feelings this song brings out. I was a lower middle class (didn't know it at the time) white boy living in small town Alabama. The Spinners were one of the groups who's music really spoke to me. We had the best music free on the radio. We didn't know how good we had it. Just listen to what passes for music today, and you'll know. Thank you for posting.

The spinners always had class

Many thanks my dear friends The Spinners great black artist I love them so much from here in Costa Mesa thank you my dear friends

This band is amazing!!!! As a good old white boy, I would love to get back the Motown sound!!!! The best music ever!!!
