I liked both of the but, for me it was "Loose Ends". The had more of a unique sound. "Love is like peeing in your pants, everyone sees it but only you feel its warmth" |

Really? I like them both, but the first time I heard Loose Ends, I thought it was a Jam & Lewis production.  | |

Watching You was my Summer Jam in '91. They had SEVERAL hits. I think Strings was the biggest,though. **--••--**--••**--••--**--••**--••--**--••**--••-

Watching You was my Summer Jam in '91. They had SEVERAL hits. I think Strings was the biggest,though. Yeah, they had a good handful of hits. Hangin' on a String was a #1 R&B hit, as was Slow Down Slow Down Mariah's partial to this one: Stay a Little While Child (official video here, Universal won't allow embedding) | |

S.O.S. band for me. I love both groups, but if I had to pick, it would be the S.O.S. Band. “When I give food to the poor, they call me a saint. When I ask why the poor have no food, they call me a Communist.” Brazilian bishop Dom Hélder Câmara |

I prefer the SOS Band; I love Mary Davis' vocals and the production stylings of Jam and Lewis.  Everybody's looking 4 the answers

I'm way more familiar with the S.O.S. Band, so they would get my vote. I do love two Loose Ends songs "Hangin' On A String" and "Mr. Bachelor." "Funkyslsistah… you ain't funky at all, you just a little ol' prude"!

The SOS Band by far. I never cared for Loose Ends very much. Well, not enough to buy anything from them. As for The SOS Band though, I like some of their stuff with Jam and Lewis but I prefer their first two albums without Jam and Lewis. Andy is a four letter word. | |

Mary Davis and the fellas all the way.
Jam & Lewis did their absloute BEST during that period. | |
