Old Soul/R&B Trio from the 70s', group names starts with an "M"?

I was at my uncle's/cousin's little spot in the backwoods of Louisiana. Well anyway, there was this album with three brothers on the cover, their name starts with an "M." The record was from 1973, it was a Greatest Hits package, so they seemed quiet famous. Can anyone help?

I had one in my head (same with the name) and lost it. They covered two songs by some other artist.

It interested me cause I've never heard of these cats.

The Moments

Most likely one of those two, considering you said they seemed "famous"

Ah yes, indeed. It must be that particular album that LBC is talking about. It isn't a "best of" collection though, as I recall, just a regular album smile
