Remember This Duo? Yarbrough & Peoples
I've been listening to this Yarbrough & Peoples' compilation all this week and their music is complete beauty for me. Their 1980 hit single, Don't Stop The Music has been sampled a lot in the rap game and those memorable synthesizer lines and Alisa's soulful vocals on this one makes it a instant CLASSIC! Guilty is another underrated funk jam that has a bass rhythm that is just amazing! Yarbrough & Peoples are just an underappreciated funk-R&B duo that ranks up there with Ashford & Simpson. Has anybody ever heard of them? Check me out and add me on:

Oh man,I love the song "Don't Stop The Music".Back in 1980,that was da jam!!
just because it's 2 O'Clock...don't mean that we have to stop just because it's 2 O'Clock...don't mean that we have to stop 
Then,in 1983,they bounced back with another jam "Heartbeat" you make my heart skip a beat everytime I see you  I love this duo![Edited 8/25/05 23:54pm] | |

Whatever happened to them - they were truly talented.They reunited a few years ago,playing a few of those Old School funk shows.They appeared at a concert in my area which also featured Rick James and The Time. | |

Indeed.Throughout most of the 80s,they had several great singles that did well on the R&B charts... "Heartbeat" (1983) "Feels So Good" (1983) "Don't Waste Your Time" (1984) "Be A Winner" (1984) "Guilty" (1986) | |
