I vaguely remember his solo career with Motown. I think Slow Motion was his biggest hit.

I'm sure that was entertaining for a 5 or 6 year old singing about "doing it in slow motion". lol

I didn't actually sing the words verbatim. I didn't know what the hell dude was singing. lol It wasn't like I was Michael Jackson on the "toy microphone" I was using. lol

SoulAlive

I remember he had a solo hit called "Take Me Where You Want To".I think this was in the mid to late-80s? He has since re-joined the Manhattans and they perform regularly at Oldies R&B shows.
