Cracking group and no mistake...

I went totally against the grain with you, Mark...'The Rubberband Man' is the one I picked - mind you, all their stuff is classy...

For those who don't know, the group is (and probably always will be) known as The Detroit Spinners here, to avoid confusion with an age-old Scouse folk group...

Rubberband Man

I LOVE the Spinners  :D

I picked "other".  My vote is "Games People Play".  Kudos also to their minor hit, "Love Don't Love Nobody".  But they have so many great songs!!!

Awesome group!!!  8)

From this bunch, I chose "Could It Be I'm Falling In Love"...

But my all-time favorite Spinners song is from 1980 and it's called "Working My Way Back To You/Forgive Me, Girl".  :)

The Spinners are one of my favorite artists.

It looks like most of us like the same ones. I like 'em in this order


1. I'll Be Around
2. Could It Be I'm Falling in Love
3. They Just Can't Stop It (The Games People Play)
4. Sadie
5. It's a Shame


I hate to say it -- but I will anyway -- my least favorite from them is "Rubber Band Man". It's too silly of a song from a group that also did 1-5 above.

:)

One Of A Kind (Love Affair) is also a very cool tune :)

Rubber Band Man

A guy called Doug Parkinson did a great cover here of "I'll Be Around" so I like that song too, but his version  :)

I can't believe "It's a Shame" has received only one mention!  >:( That song is cookin', and an early Stevie Wonder production, to boot. Other favorites: "Games People Play" and "One of a Kind Love Affair".

Nobody mentioned Cupid? :o


My favorite, I think is "They Just Can't Stop It (Games People Play) followed by "Cupid/I've Loved You For A Long Time"

I really like the Spinners. :)
