I speaking about the man on the picture is my Dad.

Melvin ,Dream Merchant. Leslie Wildflower. This is one of the most talented soul groups in history. Everybody sang

At age 60 in 2022. I'm still jammin and groovin to one of my fav groups! That old expression still holds true. Nobody's singing em like they did/do. There's no auto tune here! It's just a great song sung great!

Underrated Group!!! The vocals were superb!!!

This short video gives you a good glimpse of what The New Birth was all about. Pure, unadulterated SOUL!

Every individual in this group is a top performer so no wonder the group is outstanding. And this is LIVE!! The real deal of REAL singers. No electronic fix-up of half-talented people going on here. New Birth had it going on!! And I see Ann Bogan in the lineup. Before this, she was in the last lineup of Motown's original Marvelettes, along with the last two original members, Katherine Schaffner and Wanda Rogers, in the late '60s. When she, Leslie, and Melvin Wilson recorded their Love, Peace & Happiness LP, I jumped on it right away. Nice pro vocal work on there from all of them!!!

I love New Birth their music is amazing. It is 2023 and I'm 65 years young and I Love the oldies and goodies.

There are NO words to describe how incredible this group was. This is pure soul music. Their voices (All of them) are so unique and powerful and against the supremely skilled band, they are a total package. I wish there was footage of Dream Merchant, but I'm so thankful for every bit of footage available. It's nauseating to listen to what these current artists are trying to pass off as "music," so thankful that we have this treasure trove of REAL music in the archives to fall back on.

My bday

If I remember correctly, this was the "re-birth" of New Birth, post Peace, Love and Happiness with other multiple veteran performers (Ann Bogan was one). You could say they were an Earth Wind and Fire before EWF hit big. Wilson brothers with Ann Bogan made any song phenomenal. This song was only showcased on R&B stations as the talent level would overshadow the top 40 playlists in 70-71'ish. Ann Bogan is very, very underrated and a beautiful person.

Love this group, they sound amazing together. I love how long she can hold a note, just magnificent. The whole group is so talented.

There are truly 17 people here who don't know sh*t about true soulful singing and lyrical art and heartfelt music. This is absolute genius in soul. 5 Stars for this performance.

As a little girl I listened to New Birth! They were one of the BADDEST groups of their era!! If you think the vocals are bad on this jam…Listen to this one…This is my favorite by them!! kzread.info/dash/bejne/iKuYsK6qld3PmtI.html

Now, this is soul music and the musical artist will never have this kind of energy nor talent again.

Wow! This song makes my soul cry. Such a beautiful song❤

Beautiful. Loved New Birth. So talented.

What a great clip and a great memory. thank you!

Now they can sing oh my goodness I grew up with this group and it's just like yesterday boy if I could turn back the hands of time they are fabulous 😍❤💯

Classic!!! And Kanye West did right by this sample with Keyshia Cole and Twista 🔥🔥👫🏻

My favorite, favorite, favorite song. I just love it, in repeat all day

Londee..the female singing flirted with me until I told her I was 18 years old

Love me some NewBirth...! Brings back sooooo many happy memories.!

Nice clean classic pure soul The voices performance real singing clear and tasteful. One of my favorite songs. Perfection

So grateful that my daddy introduced me to real music growing up! New birth is one of my favorites 🙌🏾

What is his name 😊😊

Londee 😍😍😍

Whoever is playing that bass is PA-LAY-ING it‼️ I love it here❤

Wilson brother (glasses) on co lead, 100% pure Ruffin nuances, style and delivery. Fantastic performance and nice to see the criminally underrated former Challenger/Marvelette, Ann Bogan. Londee was phenomenal here. Maybe just me, I'm thinking when Harvey Fuqua first saw the Wilson brother (with glasses) performing, Harvey saw the not-so-subtle glimpses of David Ruffin in his style, enunciating (1:58) and persona, figured his girl Ann Bogan in there with the group could be counted on as a dynamic lead with an ultra professional female background in Ms Ann. If I recall correctly, Harvey was not enamored with Ms Londee for some reason, hence, he blended a former Challenger lead singer in the group. Had The Tempts been a male/female group, this may have been what they would have sounded like. Dynamic would be an understatement.

I want you find and listen to everyone of their albums and you will hear voices and songs like you never heard before nor will hear again. Appreciate this music you will never ever hear voices like these and from the 60s and70s

I can see where Ollie Woodson borrowed some of his musical style from in watching the Wilson brother's lead on here.

2023 VIBES STILL UP

Very 70's cool

Dammm powerful full the women are so beautiful and natural and the brothers sharp and check out Mr James earl Jones respect

Love New Birth. One of my favorites is "I'd Spend My Whole Life Loving You" I dont know her name but she sang her heart out on this track

To think this showed the singers and didn't show the awesome band they were also. Solid rhythm makers that provided a great sound for all those vocals to ride upon. IMPOSSIBLE to duplicate all the features that made a dynamic group.

Who's still listening in 2022?🙋🏾‍♀️
