Detroit Spinners

I'LL ALWAYS LOVE YOU (TM 1965)
SWEET THINGS (TM 1965)

The Detroit Spinners were originally called the Spinners until it was noticed that there was already a folk group with the same name who were quite well known in the UK. They belonged to the Motown stable and released a couple of tracks that were repeatedly requested at Manchester's Soul Clubs in the 1960's -  I'll Always Love You and Sweet Things.  The latter was very rare at the time, Roger Eagle the Twisted Wheel DJ had an imported copy. Everyone else had to play the version released by Georgie Fame - an LP track!

It's A Shame 1970 (lead sung by G C Cameron) was a hit on the original Soul scene from the day of its release. In 1971 The Spinners left Motown and signed for Atlantic, where they had a few major soft soul hits - Could It be I'm Falling In Love being the most well known.
