Henry Fambrough was the last surviving original member of
the popular R&B vocal group, The Spinners. He managed to live long enough
to enjoy the group’s induction into the Rock & Roll Hall of Fame in 2023,
and he might own the all-time record for continuous participation in a single
group, from its start in 1954 until his retirement last April.
I love much of their work (see below), although I have to
admit that I never liked their duet with Dionne Warwick on “Then Came You” (“Every
time I'm near ya, I get that urge to feel ya” indeed!), and didn’t especially
care for their later disco-lite medley efforts either.
