RIP

The group followed with a steady string of hits including, "YOU GET YOURS I'LL GET MINE",
"I'M SORRY", "BREAK YOUR PROMISE" and "READY OR NOT".
In 1970, "DIDN'T I BLOW YOUR MIND THIS TIME" was released, which was also written by
William Hart. The song kept moving upward until it reached the number one position on Billboards
Pop Chart. Before the year was over, the song sold over one million copies, winning
the bands its first platinum record.
At the 1971 National Academy of Recording Artists and Sciences awards, "DIDN'T I BLOW
YOUR MIND THIS TIME" won a Grammy for the top Soul hit of 1970.
The Delfonics' sexy soulful style of singing was applauded by audiences in all parts of the
United States and Europe. The Delfonics completed a highly successful tour of Europe and
were featured on almost every TV variety show at home and overseas.
The group continued with such popular singles as "FOR THE LOVE I GIVE TO YOU",
"TRYING TO MAKE A FOOL OF ME" and "WHEN YOU GET RIGHT DOWN TO IT".
In 1973, released their best selling LP entitled, "THE DELFONICS SUPER HITS". During this
year, Randy left the group to continue his education and was replaced by Major Harris. Major
had been with a singing group named The Nat Turner Rebellion
 
The Delfonics released yet another chart climbing album entitled, "TELL ME THIS IS A
 
DREAM". Major Harris went on to pursue a solo career with the release of his hit song, "LOVE
 
WON'T LET ME WAIT". Major returned to the group after a short leave. Original member
 
Randy Cain also returned to perform with the group.
 
Garfield Fleming, the newest member of the group, had been performing as a solo artist for the
 
past 20 years. Garfield adds a unique singing style to the group that has been compared to
David Ruffin.
More recently we can still hear the Delfonics songs in motion pictures such as "The Five Heartbeats"
and "Crooklyn".
The R&B singing group Silk recorded a remake of the tune "FOR THE LOVE I GIVE TO YOU"
 
on their recently platinum selling album.
