Motown Ignored Them For 9 Years… Then They Became LEGENDS

Motown Ignored The Spinners For 9 Years — Then “I’ll Be Around” Changed Everything. Discover the incredible true story behind one of the greatest R&B groups of all time and how they went from years of frustration to becoming soul music legends. The Spinners spent nearly a decade trying to break through at Motown Records. Even with their talent, they struggled to get the recognition and success they deserved. Then Stevie Wonder stepped in and produced their 1970 hit “It’s a Shame.” But even that wasn’t the breakthrough they needed.

Then came “I’ll Be Around.” What followed was an incredible run of 70s R&B and soul music classics, including “Could It Be I’m Falling in Love,” “Then Came You” with Dionne Warwick, and “The Rubberband Man.” In this R&B music documentary, we explore the untold story of The Spinners, their Motown years, Stevie Wonder’s role in their career, their move to Atlantic Records, Thom Bell’s production, and the song that finally made them stars.
