- Here's the fantastic Spinners performing live How Could I Let You Get Away, with Philippe Wynne doing impersonations of Al Green, Otis Redding, and Sam Cooke.
The Spinners rate as one of the most fantastic groups along with The Temptations, The Four Tops, The Dramatics, The OJays, The Stylistics, The Whispers, The Intruders, Harold Melvin and The Blue Notes, and The Delfonics. They were apart of the golden age of classic soul groups who mesmirized us with their dances, energy, and love songs.
It's Ashame, Rubberband Man, Mighty Love, Could It Be I'm Falling In Love, I'll Be Around, Mighty Love, One of a kind Love Affair, Ghetto Child, Sadie, How Could I Let You Get Away, Then Came You, Games People Play, Love Don't Love NoBody, were among their biggest hits, making them the premier group of the 70's. - Zábava
I Love the Spinners. But what I really LOVED WAS watching PHILIPI WYNN ON STAGE ‼️ HE WAS A TRUE PROFORMER IN EVERY SINCE OF THE WORD. IT'S SO UNFORTUNATE THAT THEY'RE NO LONGER AROUND.❤️
I realised I was blessed, being a teenager in the 70's, And being so lucky listening to beautiful music like this gem
Show you right!
Me too and then the disco era. Music was a big part of my life in the 70's
Yes Yes we were all blessed then I totally understand and agree with you truly!!!
The seventies had the greatest musical experiences by far, but America was horrible to people of color at that time. No one had cameras to actually get justice.
@@bgvan37 …still is in my life……
Mid to late 70's, they were as good as anybody. Beautiful FULL albums. Phillipe Wynne was a special soul, who died doing what he loved....going into the audience with his mic.
One of the most underrated groups of all time as was Phillipe' Wynn as a lead vocalist! It gets no better than this...pure talent!
Felipe was one of the best singers that didn't get what he had coming to him what he deserve
Also a lot of people don't even know that was him singing with George Clinton on knee-deep that's him singing knee-deep with George Clinton The Funkadelics
They were never underrated!
@@bryanwiley5511 I say they were underated. The vocals, the dance, the showmanship was great!
@@connieroy1322 You Know... I NEVER KNEW THAT WAS HIM Alll These Years And DECADES I Been Hearin' That Song Until About 2yrs Ago!!!! And I'm FORTY FLIPPIN' 3 Now!!! LOL.... 🤦🏾♂️
That was a bomb performance....... No new groups can top them....
They could never!!
@@MJM8715 they just simply can't. Periodt!!!!!!!!!!🤩
Philippe could sing the telephone book and make it sound good! I Love him and the Spinners!
So tight!!! Love them! Love me some Philippe!
Management or the Spinners didn’t give Philippi Wynn the credit he deserved. He was a great performer. RIP
Boy!! That Bobbie know he could do them steps!! He truly enjoyed it too!! RIP Bobbie!! One classy man!!
Simply the best of times. I saw them live in Atlanta in 1975 and became a Philippe fan forever and a day.
This group was better than the Temps even though they didn't have the fame.
Phillipe is so underrated regardless of his ego he was talented. If I had that kind of talent it would be hard not to get a big head.
35 years later after this concert there is still no one like Phillipe Wynn....this man was exceptional his voice and singing style was just plain ridicoulus
He was & is very under rated! He was a big inspiration to me in my development as a singer as well as some of the other greats.
Timeless ❤❤❤❤❤❤❤
I've watched a bunch of these videos and I don't know how anybody could sit there and just watch. I'm jumping around just watching from my couch, especially on Philippe's riffs.
Philippe Wynn may very well be the greatest improvisational singer of all time. In every live performance you see of his, he always incorporates some genuine, unique conversational-type ad libs. He isn't widely enough known. I guess part of that is due to truly great unison in which the Spinners performed and recorded...such great harmonies. I still believe he should be more recognized for his unique talent and outstanding voice...one of the best ever.
so true
Church lift up the Holy Spirit an Motown Love in one
Fu sho!! Nobody like him..
lnapjr76 I agree 100%,
Hi what's up with you guys 👋😀😀👋 yytyuuuutrey I am not
💫✨ The king 🤴🏿 of ad lib! 🎤 💫✨
Thank God for the dynamic writing and producing team of Gamble, Huff, Bell and Creed among others from here in Philly. We were blessed to have them record at the Philadelphia International Records studios !!!
That was the shot they needed, cause Motown wasn’t pushing them for exposure or anything else for that matter
AMAZING, AMAZING AMAZING!!!
Phillipe can pay tribute so gracefully to Al, Sam and Otis with the same melody of How Could I Let You Get Away without missing a beat. Phillipe was a stone cold showman and about thirty years ahead of his time. If Phillipe were around in the video and later social media he would be a bona fide master. I remember when he died of that heart attack about a year after Marvin died. The Rubber Band Man lives!!
He actually died the same year in 1984
I loved the Spinners they were great entertainers. Had a lot of nice hits too they could sing dance and looked good.!!!
Yes Yes yes yes yes yes!!!
Philippe ending that like a BOSS!
God bless you for posting this.
OMG. ! . SOOO BEAUTIFUL AND AWESOME!! ♥️. THANKS FOR THIS VIDEO!!♥️
I'm blown away. This is my music.
Black music with class and pride, how could we let it get away?
I tell you how, just think of who controls the record companies and finance and its not black. They want to push the other man.
Ive heard his voice on my AM/FM clock radio in the cold mornings as a kid, all thru the seventies riding around in my old beat up car riding around ...and it was so warm and soothing and wonderful...now by the magic of CZcams and the inter webs (haha) it is so great to put a face to this great soulful voice and the super group. Thx
Amen
This very talented man was Phillipe Wynne. You've also heard his voice on the opening of the Parliament Funkadelic song "Knee Deep". Check it Out! Ciao!!!
@@renaissanceman165 Phillipe Wynne's voice was not suited to Parliament Funkadelic.
He hung there because thats where all the drugs was at. Wynne was a smooth soulful singer.
Top 40 is how I was exposed to the songs in the 70 and early 80s. Love this band!
Incredible!
This can rock today!!...Felipe Wynn...Underrated Beast!
Wow,I can remember in 72 when this album came out and my mom loved it and play it often. Amazing that some music is just timeless. Now im 52, and this song just played on the radio in the car; so I came home and you tube'd' it,just to hear it again! Spinners, O' Jays,Main Ingredients, Isleys,EWF....Some of the best music everrrrrr
Ok saw
9 th6 iui xrt
Philippe Wynne was one of the greatest soul singers ever! Is contributions are endless: Sadie, Knee Deep, etc. He has never received the credit that he deserved.
U up
Thanks
Phillipe wynne is very under rated, one of the best front men to ever do it.
Phillippe Wynne was THE MAN!!!
Philippe was the Spinners! nuf said..
Yassin indeed!
yes he was
@@POPAWOLF No, Bobbie Smith was. He kept it tight. Phillippe started to get the big head, like David Ruffin.
M Merlo Exactly.
The most underrated group of the time
Much is made about Philippe's split with the Spinners - but my God, just watch the man: He was *consumed* with the Spirit !!!
Everything he did went beyond mere entertainment. Philippe testified. He believed in what he sang, he felt what he sang, and after he was done, you left reconciled, never to sin again !!!
He took us to church
Amen
Such showmen and that voice of Phillipe Wynn, timeless, soulful, and spirit-quenching.
Amen!
The Spinners a top of the line bad group and you know what I mean, the spinners knew how to make you think about everything,classic soul.
They don't make music like this anymore..if we could turn back the hands of time..
The Spinners were so wonderful and touched your heart and soul!
Yes!
How can 29 people not love Philippe Wynne's voice
Sam Smith truly those 29 individuals have a misconception of understanding the difference between someone who sings and a singer. Phillipé is and was a singer's singer. Absolutely the best.
I know right!!! There will never be another philippe wynne!! Cant be duplicated. His voice was amazing!!
True........
@@CeciliaEavesWalkerMEd right
@Rich Johnson you know your hit
you just can't get it better than this... Not only did the late, great Phillipe Wynne bring it, but he brought Sam Cooke, Otis Redding, and Rev. Al Green as well! His voice alone is original, but then to bring those brothers along... I truly miss them (except for Al, he's still with us, thank God)
Indeed! He's been gone nearly 30 yrs & I still get chills hearing his remarkable vocals. We Belong Together is another shining example, truly a masterpiece.
@@funkycandycool to pay for the update and for the update on the status of t6y yytyuuuutrey I y iuuyuiiuy you have a good day
@@funkycandycool to pay a grand or two of the three of us to get it figured out and then ignored to pay for the heads up and I'll be there in a bit I'm not sure
You can handle it
Superb singer and group.Jim.Liverpool.
this is an excellent song. I have always been a big fan of the group. This is one of their best songs ever.
I can watch this all day
Sadie...Watching the Spinners perform is such a treat because they are such a musical balanced group. They provide you with tears of sadness, joy, and humor. Phillipe Wynne...I've just started following this late great recently and watching his acts on CZcams and other broadcasts. I've never seen an entertainer that was able to capture an audience with his style. I've never seen a singer adlib, and rhyme with such prestige. Great entertainers are not taught they are born!!!
How can you NOT enjoy this? Tight vocals, choreography, showmanship, smooth harmonies... How can people compare todays 'singers' and the concerts of now to what was. I think I'd prefer :45 minutes of this to 3 hours of Chris B., Dr.Ake, or the "Pied Piper of Love". But that's just me - Opinions from an 'Old Head'.
❤️🎼💞...R.I.P Philippe Wynne🎤🌹🎼🤜💖🤛🙏
There's a quality to his voice that never leaves no matter what the material. I don't know what to call it except "enthusiasm". Especially if you just listen and don't look, he always just seems to be LOVING the act of singing.
what an amazing talent. We didn't know what we had. Safe, peaceful and enlightened journey philippe and bobby
Can't help but Love this
Bobby and that smile of his!! ❤
My godson's dad loved the spinners, especially Phillipe Wynn. I fondly remember him bobbing his head and mimicking Phillipe's voice with a happy smile on his face. He died at a young age, but now that I am 59, I really appreciate this group and their music. RIP Mike
Thank you for keeping black culture alive with all this great music.
This is awesome, even better live, I agree very entertaining. 'Impersonations' spot on.🤣
Throwback Thursday: Love Zone...beautiful song. Great group. Blessings
THE ONLY ONE
Great! Thank you for sharing this classic
It sounnds great! Love the Spinners! Black. Brown. H
He pour his heart out on this love you phippie
I would give any thing to see these groups today. Maybe in heaven. God bless them for all the memories.
Love it! Paying homage to his brothers in soul instead of hating on them.
gamergirl464 Indeed!!
Saw the Spinners live 50 times.... Great.....Phillepe Wynne was the best. Could tell some stories.
The Spinners were a very classy and humbl;e group. One fo the greatest groups to do it.....
Philippe Wynn one of a kind and undefeated still in 2018
Pure class! Love always...."in the middle of the room...have no time 2 count my sheep today"
R.I.P. Philippe, your unique style is unmatched, the music world is not the same with you gone!
I concur wholeheartedly !
All have passed except one spinner.
Amen
Philippe Wynn at his very best. Tremendous talent still remembered.
Taco Gillespie it was not Philip win that was Robert Johnson the original lead singer of The Spinners Philippe Wynne came around later when The Rubberband Man song
Joe Bennett Man who do you think that is? That is definitely Philippe my man Lol.
REMEMBERING PHILLIP WALKER "PHILIPPE WYNNE" (APR 3, 1941 - JUL 14, 1984) [04/03/2016]
2024 ❤
Phillippe and smiley leading this one, LOVE IT!
That was amazing! One of the best performances by the Spinners I have seen. I love them, they are definitely underrated. I don't think a lot people realize how many great songs they released. I can't believe they still haven't made it into the Rock & Roll Hall of Fame!
Whew, makes me wanna holler!!!!! Nothing but real music from the 70´s......
wow i had'nt heard this in awhile. what a classic. whatever happened to great music like this.
These are real kings of soul...working wanting then winning legend status..blue suits with beautiful brothers rolling soul as it should be..Gold
😭why did everything change..we need to bring all this back 🙌🏼💯♾this music will always be my go to shit 👏🏻
That was a GREAT performance by a great entertainer who died way too soon. Forget all these extra BS comments.
THIS MONTH IN MUSIC HISTORY: 45 years ago this month (April 1973), the Spinners released their self-titled album (#1 US Billboard R&B album charts; #14 pop album charts). This was the group's 1st album since switching record labels from Motown to Atlantic, and their 1st with songwriter/producer Thom Bell. [04/2018]
ALL I CAN SAY IS YEEEEEEEEEEEEEEESSSSSS! I LOVE IT
You to know that I have been screwed and I will be there
That last comment is so true this was singing and music with a purpose and meaning. If we could just have one more weekend. I'm out
Philippe'!!! Talented man was he. RIP
My grandmother loved the Detroit Spinners- Brings back good memories
Dressed To the 9's ! Singing to the Heart ! And Stepping to the beat ! Pure Showmanship ! ! !
The Perfect example of absolutely Awesome!!!!!!!!!!!!!
2020 Covid 19 stay home and listening the good music.
One of my fave R&B groups - and one of my fave tunes.
BEAUTIFUL!!♥️♥️♥️♥️
Real Singing and Showmanship!
I count 35 individuals with some serious musical issues. If you don't like Philippe, you just ain't got no Soul. And that ain't subjective. Thanks for the upload, Ms. Music.
From countless hits with the spinners to riffing on "knee-deep" (funkadelic), the incomparable Philippe Wynne was one of the best to ever do it. Never got his props from a recognition standpoint, but his talent was undeniable.
Thanks for this video! Love it.
so much love in the room band background singer spinners an Philip Wayne + Thanks for the sound and memory RIP
Rest in peace Bobby Smith :(
Tell me Phillipe didn't bring it? I would have loved to see him live in person. Rest King, rest!
I loved them all but Bobby Smith doesn't get a lot of credit deserved. He led on many of the hits.
Wow. So this is the concert and vocals used for The Spinners Live album. Philipe blew the roof off of these vocals. The backing sounds by the group are amazing. The Spinners were just as talented as the Temps, Four Tops, Stylistics, Dramatics. Both The Spinners and The Dramatics have not been given their rightful due.
This video appears to be a made-for-television production. While it is representative of their stage performances during the same time period (I saw them every time they came to Memphis, when Phillippe was a member), this is not the audio from the SPINNERS LIVE! album (Latin Casino, NJ). Nevertheless, I DO enjoy this video of their classic stage act! 😃
This video is awsome wow!!!! he can sing like all the greats Damn this group was the bomb..
This is sooo good but breaks my heart to watch.
This was so entertaining it made me want more. Unfortunately this creativity does not exist anymore in mainstream music. Peace
It does in Gospel music check out jj hairston call live it will take you to church
I'll check out JJ Hai
Tough! This great soulful singer died performing on stage in Oakland, CA. Love this song.
Wow! This was a great performance by one of the all time gretest R&B groups! Just so happens they're doing one of my favorite songs as well! As much acclaim as they enjoyed, I still think this group was underrated! They just killed this tho!!! Thanks for posting!!!
Hard to believe I don't remember these old songs. I graduated in 1976 - ad I thought I was jamming, but this one seemed to have slipped my mind. I guess I was distracted by something. LOL!
I saw the spinners live ,twice,what a privlege!!
Wow! What a performance!
We are going to be with me and I will y
I was a small kid when these great groups were around in the '70s...Thanks to the technology of CZcams, and other broadcasts I have a greater appreciation for the Temps, Four Tops, Jacksons, Earth Wind & Fire, The Gap Band, Lakeside, The Isley Brothers, and so many other groups I may have forgotten...I would like to think I've seen them all that are available...I just feel that the most underrated group had to be the Spinners...Their songs were so meaningful: such as It's A Shame...continued...
Synchronized soulful singing by the Spinners....so so smooth
Spectacular talent !!
I truly miss performers like this. In Boston we had a club called The Sugar Shack...Saw the Spinners (and many other great groups) perform there several times.
You can handle the other side of the house
going out to stacy and marcos white the "rubberband man" love you fellas enjoy
