Wow what wonderful memories!There was a photo with the Sylvers & Black Ivory together,was that possibly at the Apollo?I lived to see them All during the summers in the 70's with the Lockers as an opening act(Soul Train was Uptown during those performances!).REAL SINGING! & REAL MUSIC!Those were the days!Thank you for submiting this.
At 2:14, can't nobody tell me that Ricky (Pretty Ricky what they called him - lol) wasn't the finest specimen of a young man. If only I had my chance with him (dang). Still want me some Ricky. Come home soon baby (Foster too), you all are much loved by millions.
@BLKFOX2000 I'm laughing so hard Ricky, excuse me Pretty Ricky is getting alot of online love! Its great haha. He and the rest of them are very photogenic!
@RememberTheTime09 lmao ... every time I think of the phrase Pretty Ricky I'm thinking of the Martin episode when he went back to his high school reunion to face Pretty Ricky who caused him grief while in high school. I loved that episode. But back to the real Pretty Ricky, he and his family are much loved. I'm so fortunate to have experienced The Sylvers back in the day, and relive all the memories here on YouTube (I love YouTube). Allows us to stroll down memory lane each and every visit.
@ 2:18 the scene is so wonderful! Olympia (Pretty Olympia is what the called her!) The absolute finest specimen of a young woman.Absolute angel.If you can not see her wings it's because she has folded them to her left shoulder ; )

Wow ... beautiful. I love The Sylvers as I grew up listening to their music, fantasizing like most teen girls about being on the arm of one of Ricky, Edmund, James or Leon. Such a talented family. And I didn't know that Charmaine co-wrote 'A Night To Remember' recorded by Shalamar. I knew Leon Sylvers was the force behind SOLAR and produced many of the songs including songs by The Whispers, but I didn't know Charmaine was writing songs. Wow, God truly gave out extra talent to this family.
...Those first three albums on the Pride label are just eternally cold!
