Among the more popular family acts on the '70s R&B circuit, Memphis' Sylvers recorded for Pride, MGM, Capitol, Casablanca, and Geffen during their 13-year chart run. No less than nine of the ten brothers and sisters in the family -- Olympia, Leon, Charmaine, James, Edmund, Ricky, Angie, Pat, Foster -- performed in the group that was viewed as a Southern version of the Jackson 5. Their 1972 Pride single "Fool's Paradise" got things going in the right direction, reaching number 14 on the R&B charts. They had three other Top Ten R&B hits in the '70s, but their biggest song was "Boogie Fever" in 1975. It perfectly captured the disco spirit and topped both the R&B and pop charts that year. "Hot Line" was another Top Ten on both lists in 1976, and their second biggest single. They scored another Top 20 R&B single on Casablanca in 1978, "Don't Stop, Get Off," but the charming qualities of their earlier material seemed more calculated. They couldn't recapture the spark during their mid-'80s period on Geffen.

@Nanadsyl Pat was one of the finest women ever, back then, and even now, where she looks better than most of the actresses and celebrities around.

When i first saw this i thought that Pat was Vanity. They look alike and now they both are devout beautiful christian women.

Woah! This was before my time but can't help but be at awe with the beauty of the Sylver sisters. Cannot compare. Great Musicians too!

Foster and Ricky are both home for Christmas!

I know it's obvious, but -now- come on : this is really a promotionnal video : the horns (trumpets and/or trombones) are not here : there are no trumpeters on stage, especially in the video for "Come Back Lover" ,where the horns are clearly heard; and no strings too on stage (violins)...The group is in its original line-up, with the 5 members -just like on the cover of the album "Concept"- but they had to add that drummer, cause Foster was on lead vocals (and perhaps can't play drums too...)

@Tabooaustin ....not sure if you knew Foster is not dead...infortunately at last report sitting in California Prison serving parole violation.....

[RememberTheTime09]

Can't get enough of this song...Foster does an amazing job vocally. They are all so gorgeous here.

[samira9011]

Is Foster stoned or what?

[raygu1818]

@Nanadsyl For real. I would have put a ring on both of those ladies finger back then.

Beautiful song. Has been stuck in my head all day.

I was so glad to come home and be able to finally take an actual listen to it.
