The Real Thing are comprised of the three original vocalists Chris Amoo, Eddie Amoo and Dave Smith who had three million selling hit singles in the 70's - 'You To Me Are Everything', 'Can't Get By Without You' and 'Feel The Force' plus other top ten successes such as 'You'll Never Know What You're Missing' and 'Whenever You Want My Love'.

In 1986 'You To Me Are Everything', 'Can't Get By Without You' and 'Can You Feel The Force' were all remixed and became huge hits again thanks to their huge club following.

To quote from the Guiness Book of Hit Records - "they were the UK's best selling black group of the late 1970's and only fellow Liverpudlians, The Beatles and Frankie Goes To Hollywood have had more singles in the all time top 100".

Still going strong in the 21st Century, The Real Thing have definately earned their reputation as the UK's number 1 soul band.  Eight on stage, performance includes all their top ten hits, plus a medley of classic covers from Kool and The Gang 'Ladies Night' and 'Celebration', 'Good Times' by Chic and 'Ain't No Stopping Us Now' from McFadden and Whitehead or for club dates the group can perform independently on playback singing live vocals over backing tracks and in this respect they have definately earned the reputation of the best live playback act you can possibly hope to book.
