    Gene Chandler is one of the few singers to achieve chart success spanning the doo-wop, rhythm & blues, soul & disco musical eras 50's-80's. His 2 biggest hits were "Duke Of Earl" & "Groovy Situation". But he recorded a lot of great songs such as "Just Be True", "Nothing Can Stop Me", "What Now," "Rainbow," "I Fooled You This Time," "Think Nothing About It," "A Man's Temptation," "To Be A Lover," "Bless Our Love", "You Can't Hurt Me No More" etc.

    @vickismith4180 Před 2 lety

    Not the 1980's the 60's. There was a movie of the Motown Show and Gene Chandler was one of the performers. This was back when Stevie Wonder was "Little" Stevie Wonder.

    I remember hearing this song and several others my sister would play. Her friends would be listening to it swaying to the song with their eyes close. We would laugh get chased out of the living room. Listen to Sam Cook, Johnny Mathis, Little Anthony. I think Gene Chandler also did a remake of this song called Rainbow 65..

  • @joyroberts8266
    @joyroberts8266 Před rokem

    I can’t say, this isn’t my favorite artist, bur I did like the song! There was actually the original, that was back in the 1960’s. So, this was called “Rainbow’80, because it was the updated version. I’d say he came to fame in the ‘60s. His 1st song was called, “The Duke Of Earl.” Love ya guys!!!
