The truth is that without their famous lead singers, alot of these groups were "just another group". While they might have had a hit or two, a song might be remembered, the lead singer will be remembered but the rest of the group really won't. And that is not saying there weren't some talented members ~ Marv Tarplin for one; Jean Terrell for another. But they were very overshadowed by Smokey, Lionel, Gladys, Michael and Diana.
