Russell Thompkins was the best lead singer ever for the Stylistics. Russell was vocally pure, smooth, and sang on key. I have several Stylistics favorites. I have amazing memories of them as a Latino kid in the Bronx, in the 70's!
Timeless classics!! No one will ever be able to duplicate the sounds of philly. Thanks for the documentary 👍
Glad you made this. The Stylistics don't get the love and recognition they deserve.
Thom Bell was the producer /songwriter that made them legends.
With Linda Creed. Who wrote lyrics with Thom Bell.
Man you be KILLING it! I'm 52 years old, and I grew up to them, and all of the 70's artists like Bill Withers, and so many others. Keep doing your thing Young blood, because I'm reliving the GOOD OL' DAYS.
Forgot just how much influence Thom Bell had. What a writer!
The Stylistics are one of my favorite groups ever. Russell Thompkins Jr. has one of the best male falsettos in the world.
I totally agree. No one's voice could ever come close to Russell Thompson Jr .My favorite song ,,You Are Everything And Everything is You,,!
@@carlospurdy9982 You Are Everything & Betcha By Golly Wow are my Top 2.;
He has the best falsetto of all time in my opinion.
ITA!
@@valeriewhite3542 hi Val.... checking these facts out???
Ha
I'll say put them in the Hall of Fame as well with a resume like that they definitely belong their. Russell has worked very hard to keep the group alive and on the chart
As a teenager growing up in Chicago stepping was a must n I fell in love with Hurry up this way again 🥰🥰🥰
I totally agree with you on the fact that they should be in the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame. I love the Stylistics. Always have and always will
Thom Bell was clearly one of the best R&B producers from the late 60s to the mid 70s.
He also produced the Spinners, Delfonics and Johnny Mathis where he did an album called “I’m Coming Home” 1974 with his collaborator.
👏🏽👏🏽👏🏽👏🏽🤩🤩I Loovveee The Fabulous Stylistics!!🥰I had the honor of seeing them perform here in Detroit “back in da day!”🤩These guys sounded absolutely AMAZING!! I mean, they sounded better than the record!! Thank u sooo much for covering this!! It’s about time!!👌🏽👏🏽👏🏽👏🏽👏🏽🤩🤩💖
Went to the DTE back in the day to see this show Amazing vocal skills 🤗 Sounded just like the record🎤
Couldn't have sounded better than the revord. Because love, Murrell, Smith and Dunn never sang on any of the records in first 3 albums and 12 top hits. The background on the records was sung by Thom Bell himself, Linda Creed herself, Bunny Seigler, and members of MFSB studio singers.
@@nancywood9531 thanks for the info!!👍🏽🙌🏽🫶🏽I never knew this😆
Absolutely well done 👍👍👍
You forgot to mention that once they got with Thom Bell, the only Stylistic to sing on their recordings were Russell Thompkins Jr. Thom Bell & Gamble and Huff provided the background vocals.
Linda Creed sang background also as did Daymond Johnson who has been with group since 79. He still sings with Russell Thompkins Jr and new Stylistics in concert still in 2024.
great job
You got decent content bro, really you do! But, pronounce folks names properly. Thom=(Tom), Dionne=(Dion) Warwick. My surname as well as 1st name gets mispronounced far too many times, so, it's something I notice. It's a respect thing. And it's so much info available that I'm quite sure there are videos of people properly speaking Dionne's and Thom's name😉
I just had to mention that. Otherwise, you got good stuff. Keep up the content✊️!
The Stylistics debut LP was the BEST R&B ALBUM EVER to me from start to finish along with The Isley Brothers “ The Heat is On”. As a former DJ with thousands of R&B and Funk LPs and a former record shop owner that was my evaluation. Russell Thompkins and Michael Jackson had the best falsetto voices ever to me.
Please, include the great Sylvester here as well!
Love the Stylistics... Thom (pronounced Tom) Bell was one of the Hottest producers to me !!
Not to mention the lovely philly girl the late Linda Creed.
Payback is a dog is an all time favorite
Great work Salamander
I listened to an interview Producer Thom Bell did where he said he didn't like how the other Stylistics sounded in the studio so on most of if not all Stylistic recordings he only allowed Russell Thompkins Jr & Airrion Love to sing in the studio..the background vocals on those records were usually provided by himself, Linda Creed & Love
@lh12cat-xd7wt yup!
I do agree. The Stylistics should be in the Rock and roll Hall of Fame 👍🎶
You keep saying "Donny Warwick" It DIONNE (DEE-ON) IJS
never knew Love In This Club was a sample of The Stylistics
It doesn't really sound like it to me though
It’s the song You Are My Everything that Usher sampled it could be something very simple as using the snap drum etc
I am from Philly and really enjoyed learning about the information you have provided. Obviously you have put in a lot of time and effort to prepare and present your videos. I have also enjoyed the other videos on all the other artists you have offered. I would like to see a video about Tavares who in my opinion is also underrated. Thank you for your hard work. I appreciate your efforts. 💜
Deborah Cox also sampled You Are Everything for Things Ain't Just The Same
One of My Favorite Groups. Very underrated in the history of music!
Great job King. I know Mr. Bell's first name is spelled with a Th, but it is still pronounced as Tom. Keep it up!
Absolutely...who is Dom??? Lol
I don't remember how I found your channel but your commentary is always very informative. And adding snippets to some classics just takes me down memory lane. Keep up the good work!👏🏽🙌🏽👏🏽🙌🏽 your voice sounds like you weren't even born when the artists you speak on were successful.. I could be wrong though. Good work. 👏🏽🙌🏽
Your Right I’m Only 23 But I Love Music So Much
@@WBPTV wow..God Bless you 🙏🏽and your love ❤️of History of Music.
Round two album yours right as rain was an awesome song did it chart?
You and me was a jam on that album too!
voice more clear, you've been working my friend
They do indeed belong in the Rock and Roll Hall of fame. Daryl Hall (of "Hall & Oats") said as much at the podium as he and John Oats were inducted a few years back.
Never will you see them in the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame.Russell refused to go in with them.BECAUSE THEY DIDN'T SING ON THOSE HIT RECORDS..HE CARRIED THEM FOR 39YRS ABOUT.BECAUSE OF HIM THEY STILL GET ROYALTIES FOR RECORDS THEY DIDN'T SING ON.after what they did why help THEM...
This is a master piece
They really changed a lot of lead singers, infact I have all the Hugo and Luigi songs on 💿 and some of them make me cry, happy 😊 tears 😭 of course.
You are the man, the Stylistic was a great group and they definitely have some jams.
Stylistics make some of my favorite music of all time. Great music
Great group and the production quality of their records is top tier!
WELL DONE!!!!!
I Agree, With ALL Those Hit Songs THEY Should be in The Hall of Fame..
I love this group the stylistics has classic after another. People make the world go is one of my favs.😂😂
You are a legend
You are a genius
All the gold singles and albums of gold platinum were sung by Russell Thompkins alone. Airion only sang on 2 of the 14 top hits. He sang duo on them With Russell. " You Make Me feel Brand new" and " You are Everything".
You are the man
You are so sosososo smooth
You are sosossoo talented
Great group. Great sound. 👍 🎶
You are so sosososo underrated
You are so sosososo brilliant
I always thought the lyrics of the Stylistics songs were so profound & their style romantic. There's another group I would consider unsung, The Mad Lads of Stax Records of which I would appreciate a documentary done about them.

One of my favorite groups and they should be in the rock and roll hall of fame, or develop
a rock and roll hall of fame for groups from the 70's.
One of my favorites by them is " only for the children" RIP Linda Creed.
That's My Group, To This Day!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
My favorite group of all time. I first seen them in Toronto back in 85, seen them in Buffalo NY several times. Seen them in DC and Seattle. Been following these guys for over 25 years.
RIP Thom Bell.
35 years*
My good man , My guy , My brother . one thing ok ? Let me tell you , The Spinners are from Detroit . They only had the Philly Soul Sound .....Produced by Mr. Bell but came from Motown Records . Marvin Gaye was a session drummer and back up singer for them .
The Stylistics are wonderful one of my favorites. Russell Thompkins Jr is one of the best falsetto singers ever. But what people don't know is that Russell and Arrion were the only one's that actually sung on the Thom Bell produced records. He didn't like the voices of the other members.
They should have cemented a place in the rock and roll hall of fame
Man they had some hits !!
You go
Arion love of the stylistic is my wife's first cousin.
When ya gonna do The Delfonics?
You are the real deal
You are so superb
Memories of the talent shows at recreation centers at 25 and master.
The Spinners were not from Philadelphia.
There is no Stylistics without Russel.
If not the best
They need to tour together- they were awesome
You are sosossoo unique
You are so sosososo unique
please wbptv the four tops legends of motown
Great little informative vid. Glad I found this channel. Fuck, the Stylistics should be in any Hall of Fame going! Isn’t the Rock n Roll Hall of Fame about anybody who has a significant impact upon any genre? It’s certainly not about the traditional definition of Rock n Roll, not for a long time. Rock n Roll just means sexy, happenin music nowadays, a general thing, otherwise no one since Buddy Holly would’ve qualified, never mind that Beatles band, or whatever they were called. The Stylistics? Come on, look at their song catalogue and the sweetest falsetto voice of all time!
Black music at its finest.❤
The group had been together for a long time.
Thom Bell made the Stylistics. his string arrangements made the Philly sound 😊
It should be noted the Stylistics DID have hit singles on the H&L label: :"Can't Help Falling In Love With You" (#4UK), "Sixteen Bars" (#7UK) & "$7000 And You" (#24UK)
The Spinners were actually from Detroit.
I'm an Eban Brown fan.
Yes, it’s Tom Bell, and not Thom Bell and is Dionne Warwick and not Donnie Warrick
