The New Stylistics Featuring: Russell Thompkins Jr.

One of the best-known Philadelphia soul groups of the 1970s. Their hits from this period included “Betcha by Golly Wow!”, “I’m Stone in Love with You”, “Break Up To Make Up”, “You Make Me Feel Brand New” featuring a double lead with Love, “Stop, Look, Listen (To Your Heart)” and “You Are Everything”.

The Stylistics’ smooth sound also found an easier path onto adult contemporary airwaves than other soul artists, and the group made Billboard magazine’s Easy Listening singles chart twelve times from 1971 to 1976.
