Correct, Every group during those days had a top notch falsetto crooner. Groups like Temprees/ Delfonics/ The Moments/ Intruders/ Temps/ Skip MaHoney/ Dynamic Superiors to name a few!! Boone's farm days & nights🍾🥃 😂😂

The Chite lites Step back a bit 60's, 70's. The temptations Eddie Kendricks. All American true singers . serenading a woman in a serious way. Every group wanted to be them.🇺🇲🇺🇲🙏🏾🙏🏾🙏🏽

My favorite Dramatics song is “In The Rain”. What a great group!😎

Ashley I love your reaction to the dramatizing Dramatics Be My Girl. You are priceless.

Their catalog is 🔥🔥🔥🔥 Just Shopping, Get Off My Mountain, In The Rain, Whatcha See Is Whatcha Get .....

This is a Quiet Storm classic

Another classic bop by The Dramatics! I approve this reaction, it gave everything it was supposed to give 💯💯🔥🔥🔥

The "Fabulous" Dramatics 💯✅👍🏾🎶🎤🎤🎤🎤🎤

One of the greatest groups of all time!!!

The fabulous dramatics. Ron Banks was ‘that guy’. One of the best falsettos ever.

The Dramatics voices are off the chain. My favorite group ever.

Thank you, LJ Reynolds is a beast. That man has a powerhouse of a voice.

That's Mr. Ron Banks hitting you with the fausto (high notes) The Dramatics got that chokehold you're talking about.

❤ 🎶 they were not playing back then that nice slow dancing black light music 💃 The Dramatics, The Stylistics, Blue Magic their music is timeless. I love ❤ your music reactions you be feeling it girl😊

Ashley, I just love, love, love your reaction to this song by the Dramatics. You actually brought tears of joy to my eyes, watching you react to my era of music. Thank you for being so positive with your words of wisdom. Young lady may God continue to keep and bless you is my prayer 🙏

What a time period

One thing I love about this track is how their voices blend but also stand out individually.

Dramatics were so good. I loved every song they made but there's so many that I loved but one special one stood out and it was called "just shopping"

Hello Ashley, I know your married ( and no disrespect ) but I love the way you embrace our old school music. I appreciate that in you, because you get it. Today's generation has no clue of the power of our music. I grew up a 60s 70s child. . And yes that glow in you and that sparkle in you eyes , surely takes me back. These women today have no clue of love and romance. ( Your reactions say it all ) The music captures your inner soul, and I see it in your smile .. Thank you Ashley for understanding our music . Pass it forward you beautiful black woman. I love watching your channel because I know the music brings that beautiful sparkle in your eyes and makes you just glow. Your soooooo beautiful . Yes sister yes

A fine song. Though The Dramatics biggest hit was "What You See Is What You Get", one of the real classics of the period.

The most underrated group ever! Ron Banks on that top was killer!

The original version by Michael henderson is a very nice selection.

The original by Michael Henderson was very nice. But!!!!! "The Mighty Dramatics," took it to another level!!!!!

Talking about a classic, this is it!😊

I've been waiting for you to react to this song! This was slow jam heaven back in the day. The Dramatics had sooo many hits. In the same vein, check out "You Are My Starship" by Norman Connors.

Yes, Ms. Ashley.... Your reaction is priceless! And yes the choke hold was really real ❤‍🩹...

"In,, 1976 . "I,, used to be sitting outside on my front porch, with my. AM. and. F.M. C.B. "Radio. "Now, it wasn't a. "C.D. Radio. . "It, was a. "C.B. "Radio. "But, i would be sitting outside, waiting for the candy truck to come down my street. and, back then everything on the candy truck was. 10 cents. 15 cents. and penny candy. was just a penny. Sodas was 15 cents, and candy bars was 10 cents. Potato chips was, 5 cents. and a big bag of chips was just. 25 cent. Back then $1 dollar. would buy you a lot of Stuff off the candy truck. "And, that's why we call it the good old days. Because everything was so cheap back then even grocery was cheap.😀.

Now you wrong for this song for your reaction video..Lord you have taken me back to a time when music was real..sung from the heart..and fill you with all types of emotions..love that one..almost made me hug my pillow..AMLOST but I didn't..😅😅

Love that song..so many memories

Written and produced by Michael Henderson, Be My Girl peaked at #3 R&B and #53 Pop in early 1977 and as the second single from the Joy Ride album was the most successful.

Check out Girl Stop Your Weeping the Dramatics. It's ❤

Hi, thiis is chuck the former cab driver from Detroit , one of the first jobs i ever had was a t Detroit,s historic Edgewater 2:53 3 Edgewater park. , At the age of 12 years old in the seventieths , ,i was told to sweep up the sound stage. At intermission of a concert, one summer weekend, and lord be hold. It was ron banks and the dramatics ,i met an and spoke to ron banks and the rest of the members, and as i was sweeping. The stage i had my back to the the Detroit crowd, someone threw a big brick and just missed my head by inches ,and 35 years later, sadly the great ron banks passed away of an apparent. Heart attack. I attended his funeral in Detroit, i miss you mister. Banks. My friend. R.i.p. to you and all of the other members who. Passed away god bless the baddest r and b Detroit singing group in the world , signing off. Chuck from motown

Now if you are gonna get into the Dramatics, you must listen to In the Rain or Fall in Love Lady Love. They were one of my favorite groups in the 70's.

Detroit in the house

Yes ma'am!!!!!!

I Love your reaction to the Dramatics. Believe it or not,but, my Brother sang with a group called Showcase and they opened up for the Dramatics at a club called the Inferno in Kansas City, Mo. I had front row seats and the Dramatics were awesome.

Your smile is priceless baby girl enjoy 😂😂

Ma’am, you are too MuCh!!!! This was my jam, before I stumbled upon Marvin Gaye’s, “If I Should Die Tonight.” Both are amazing, but I’ve got to give a slight edge to MG. Love your reaction!!!! It’s fun to just watch you jam!!! ✌🏾 🫶🏾 & ✊🏾…peace, love & soul!! 🙏🏾

Ok. More contributions since you got me listening to some music that I had forgotten.. "Is It A Crime" -- Sade "As" Wonderman aka Stevie Wonder Might be a little long fir YT reaction clips.. "Fire and Desire" -- Rick James and Tina Marie Which reminds me.. "You and I" -- Rick James Great dance music "Where Have I Known You Before" -- the late, great Chic Corea Solo piano. Probably not a reaction clip, but you"ll enjoy it. Short and sweet Keep up the EXCELLENT work...😉

See Ashley guarantee you won’t hear music like this anymore nowadays 👍🇵🇷 Music that talks to the soul

You are getting some great recommendations. They are taking me BACK!!

My boyfriend dedicated this song to me at 15 years old, how could I say no?? I haven’t been loved like that since.

Dramatics I wanna go outside in the rain

Teddy Pendergrass - lady, only you, get up get down get funky get loose, life is a song worth singing

When you get a chance check out their Unsung episode. You will find out a lot about them. I think only two of the original members are still alive!

5 part harmony was the thing back then.

You've got to react to "Shake It Well" by The Dramatics, now that's a bop!

Produced by Don Davis and Tony Hester, it was the first single from the 1977 title track album, just weeks after the Davis-produced ‘I Can’t Get Over You’ peaked in the top ten of the R&B chart.

Ashley if you go back a little further to 1972 ,their are two songs by the Dramatics -“In The Rain “ and “What You See Is What You Get “ 🔥🔥🔥

"After This Dance" is another one from their album "Joy Ride" to check out. ❤❤❤❤

At the basement parties, this song never let me down

Dramatics door to my heart

In The Rain!

Play the Manhattans, "Wish You Were Mine"

Great song and reaction! Bassist Michael Henderson did a fantastic job on this one originally. I don't know if you've reviewed him yet, (You Are My Starship; Take Me, I'm Yours; Can't We Fall In Love Again) but, he's worth checking out.

Do their version of Just Shopping Not Buying Anything

Eddie Holman - hey there lonely girl

Ask any Detroitier growing up from the 60's to the 80's and they will probably pick the Dramatics over the Temptations 9 times out of 10. If you wan to hear one of L.J. Reynolds best vocal performance look up The Dramatics "I Can't Get Over You" and their version of "Me And Mrs. Jones" displays all of their vocal skills.

I was living in Germany in the mid to late 70s and I missed a lot of top 40 radio so I don’t know this group or the song. But they do have a Temptations vibe about them, for sure. If you like the deep voice of this song, have you checked out Barry White? He’s famous for a bedroom voice. Brace yourself before you start listening, otherwise you’ll melt to the floor, lol.

Detroit in the house!!!

My Favorite group!!! U gotta listen to "IN THE RAIN" "WHATCHA SEE IS WHATCHA GET" "ME N MRS. JONES" n "NOW YOU GOT ME LOVIN YOU"

Listen and react to "I can't get over you " by The Dramatics. This is how we did it back in the day.

You have excellent taste

These songs are for the ladies

Willie hutch - i like everything about you, love power, i choose you, stormy weather

You must listen to Michael Henderson version of this song. It is as good. By the way Michael Henderson wrote the song o for the Dramatics.
