You can take a black guy to Nashville from right out of the cotton fields with bib overalls, and they will call him R&B. You can take a white guy in a pin-stripe suit who’s never seen a cotton field, and they will call him country. ~ O. B. McClinton

None. Those were on a different label.

Really I thought they were a 2 hit wonder, although I saw an ad for their "Forever Yours" album in a 1970s Donald Duck comic years ago and it was full of spangled silver flares, a smiling woman with a mushroom style haircut and men of various ages with various sized afros and 70s disco balls. I always thought they were a kiddie disco act from about 1977 and another ad showed a poster of them in full flares standing on a logo next to posters of Charlie Rich, Lobo and Grizzly Adams.

A few of The Sylvers worked on Janet Jackson's debut album and Edmund did voices on the Jackson 5 cartoon. Leon Sylvers produced a lot of R&B hits in the late 1970s & early 1980s, particularly on the Solar label like The Whispers & Shalamar. Leon was also in a band called Dynasty. Foster Sylvers had a hit (Misdemeanor) that's been sampled quite a bit.

Those songs you mentioned were the ones that crossed over to Top 40 during the disco era, but not their only hits on the R&B chart. The albums in the OP came out in the early 1970s before disco became big.

Thanks for clearing this up, because I love those songs. They look like they had a Jacksonesque feel, with either Foster or Edmund being the Michael.
