Although their first album appeared in the early '60s, it was with 1975's "They Just Can't Stop It (Games People Play)" that the Spinners really got moving. They emerged as one of the poppiest of the '70s soul bands, which cost them dearly in credibility. But their best songs were stunning--and by the time original vocalist Philippe Wynne left the group, in 1977, they'd racked up enough successes to stuff a greatest-hits package from top to bottom. Atlantic's 1978 "Best of the Spinners" LP was that package, although this release augments it with later hits like "Working My Way Back to You" and "Cupid." Another anthology package, a double-CD released by Atlantic Records, packs in even more, but the essentials are all here. --Gavin McNett

Customer Reviews:

5 out of 5 stars Great collection of one of the best soul groups ever!.......2007-05-27

This is by far the best and cheapest 1 disc collection of The Spinners incredible Discography that I have ever seen, and the inside booklet also includes a nice little narraration of the group themselves.
Where to start with The Spinners themselves? They are incredible, and thru-out quite a few personnel changes they still kept there essance.
If you purchase this, expect to hear a talented gifted lead singer, with a crew of equally talented singers backing him up. Expect Dense instrumentation, much more dense, and plush than most of the Music of this genre at the time. Production wise it pulls influence from both Soul, and Disco, which is an interesting combo, because I hate disco but like Soul, and I LOVE this.
Lyrically they are solid too. The songwriters for The Spinners were in the background, but should not be treated second rate. They had skill... Expect most of the songs to be love songs, but there is other topics. I enjoy the interesting Social Commentary on Poverty and the effect it can have on a childs self esteem on "Ghetto Child".

Simply put, this is a must have for a true Music Collector, or lover. Cop this.

STANDOUT TRACKS:
Quite honestly, sense this is a greatest hits of a great group, I can't choose... Every track is a beuitiful peice of art.

5 out of 5 stars Great if You Only Want One Disc of The Spinners Music.......2007-03-30

I ordered this for my mom. She loves the whole disc thus 5 stars. This is for those who only want one disc of The Spinners very best songs. For these wanting more, get "Definitive Soul", their 2-disc greatest hits which came out (also from Rhino) last year.

5 out of 5 stars Excellent compilation of a great vocal Soul group! .......2007-03-06

Hey, if you never tried to consider Soul music as REAL GOOD MUSIC, give a try to this Spinners' compilation. These guys will make you fall in love with real, good Soul music. Be sure of it!

5 out of 5 stars The Very Best of the Spinners.......2007-01-15

These are great tunes done in the particular "Philly" style that we loved then and still do - amazing really how timely they still are - but, maybe I'm just "stuck" in my younger years - still fun. Plus, the Spinners didn't have too much else (to my knowledge) but this is the best.

5 out of 5 stars The Best of the Spinners- The Best of Motown!!.......2007-01-03

Anyone who loves Motown music MUST have this in their collection!! It really does feature the very best of the Spinners, without a doubt one of the finest groups to come out of Motown. Their harmonies never disappoint and every song makes you want to dance. Buy it today!!!

First of all i was reading some of the reviews for this cd and amazon is being blamed for people who don,t know that the spinners were on motown first.For which the hits truly yours/it,s a shame(written by stevie wonder)ill always love you and together we can make such sweet music all classics on MOTOWN! thats why they have a best of with MOTOWN! .For those of you looking for the best of the spinners, ill be around/rubberband man/then came you will find them on ATLANTIC! Now that thats this cd is a real classic enjoy!

1 out of 5 stars Very, very poor.......2006-10-02

This CD is missing most of their great hits: Then Came You; I'll Be Around; Could It Be I'm Falling In Love, etc.

And, at 29:57 minutes of music, a rip-off too.

5 out of 5 stars This is a great CD.......2004-11-29

I have this CD and love it. I've read the other reviews and I don't understand it........the track listing that Amazon has is EXACTLY the same as my disc. The only thing that Amazon didn't mention is that on "Then Came You", Dionne Warwick sings with The Spinners.

4 out of 5 stars Don't get confused with title, but it's still good.......2004-03-24

After leaving Motown for Atlantic where they really made their move with the "Spinners" blue and white album, Motown tried to take advantage of their popularity by releasing this CD.

Some good work here led by lead singer G.C. Cameron (who is currently touring again with the group as John Edwards was ill). "It's a Shame," their lone Motown hit, obviously highlights this set. Some of the material is solid, but certainly not up to their Thom Bell produced sound a few years later.

Cameron kicks it in with "My Whole World Ended" and "I've got to find myself a brand new baby" is an upbeat song.

Interesting CD to show Spinners roots and why they left Motown. Huge confusion today: The Spinners are not really a Motown group. They made their mark with Atlantic.

Amazon STILL has not corrected the song listing on this. None of the songs they have listed are on this CD.

        5 out of 5 stars Seventies soul classics.......2005-03-30

        Two very different groups called the Spinners were formed in the fifties - an American R+B group and a British folk group. Neither group disputed the other's use of the name as has sometimes happened in other cases. When the need arose, the American group became identified in Britain by adding a prefix. Originally known in Britain as the Motown Spinners, they became the Detroit Spinners after leaving Motown for Atlantic. To avoid confusing myself and other Brits, I'll call them the (Detroit) Spinners. When I review music by the folk group, I'll call them the (British) Spinners to avoid confusing my American friends.

        Despite being formed in the fifties and signing to Motown in the early sixties, the (Detroit) Spinners struggled to make an impact although they eventually had a British and American top twenty hit with It's a shame (written by Stevie Wonder). Their Motown music, including that track, is available elsewhere (and definitely worth a listen). This compilation focuses on their commercially successful years after they left Motown.

        During their time with Atlantic, the (Detroit) Spinners had three different lead singers, these being Bobby Smith, Philip Wynne and John Edwards. In the early eighties, further line-up changes took their toll and the group faded into obscurity. Before that happened, they left a legacy of wonderful soul music.

        Their classic hits include I'll be around (which provided them with a great start to their Atlantic career in America), Could it be I'm falling in love (which consolidated their American success and came close to giving them a UK top ten hit), Ghetto child (another huge American success and their first UK top ten hit), Then came you (with Dionne Warwick - an American number one hit but only a minor UK hit), The rubber band man (which returned them to the UK top twenty), Working my way back to you / Forgive me girl (the first part of this medley is a cover of a Four Seasons song - the single gave them a UK number one hit and an American number two hit) and Cupid / I've loved you for a long time (a British and American top ten hit that marked the end of their glory years in both countries).

        If you enjoy seventies soul music, the (Detroit) Spinners are definitely worth a listen. This compilation includes all their essential Atlantic hits. If you enjoy it as much as I think you will, you may also like to investigate their Motown recordings.

          5 out of 5 stars English folk - The (original) Spinners.......2000-01-23

          For those of you looking for the Detroit Spinners, this is not for you! If, like me, you were seearching for the English folk group The Spinners then I am glad to report you have found the only generally available CD I know of! This is an eclectic collection of the Spinners' work, giving a selection of traaditional and more modern folk songs. Favourites of mine are Roving Navvy, Rukumbine Stockholm Tar, all delivered with customary gusto and emotion accompanied by guitarss and all manner of extra instruments. The lack of Spinners CDs available anywhere in the world makes this a must-buy for fans of English and world folk music; for this price, give it a try!
