    The Spidells harmony & riffs are untouchable! I've listen to the Time, and other professionals groups nobody can hit the riffs! like the Spidells. Even the Time can't match that riff pattern; Other professional singing groups sing with a straight background line! On the other hand a riff carries the sound like a velvet wave. Listen again to the background vocals then compare the Time, Huey Newton & the news, they sing with a straight line in their background vocals!

      According to Mr. Anthony Amp friend of Billy Lockridge frontman of the Spindells passed away! Mr. Amp said it was Billy who told him how to get the video of him so you & I and so many others could enjoy watching and hearing this beautiful song.
      It should also be noted they were college students at Tennessee State University. Listen to the harmony their riffs sounds better than the Tymes who coined so much in love. All for one sung it in the 90s it put them on the map! 25 years later still touring all over the world. The baritone kept the harmony going great job!

    So Much in Love" is a song written by George Williams, Billy Jackson, and Roy Straigis (initially under the name John Joseph). It was originally performed by Williams's American soul vocal group the Tymes and was released in the summer of 1963 on Cameo Parkway Records, which produced many pre-Beatles hits of the 60s such as The Twist.🎷🥁🎸

    The Spidells did an incredible version of the Tymes' record, the single that skyrocketed to the No. 1 position on the Billboard magazine charts on August 3, 1963. There is some comment questioning whether the Spindells did the song first. That does not seem to be the case. The tune was penned by Tymes' singer George Williams, along with co-writer Bill Jackson, an A&R director at Cameo-Parkway Records in Philadelphia . When the multi-tasking Bill Jackson heard "As We Stroll Along", a work-in-progress song by George Williams, he improved on the original idea with the help of his fellow producer Roy Straigis and created the gorgeous ballad "So Much in Love".
    Vivian Williams, George's wife of more than 40 years, remembers that their romance was its inspiration: Roy Straigis arranged the song issued on Parkway Records, the Philadelphia-based record label that signed the Tymes. Williams, a member of the Tymes since 1960, was 68 when he passed away July 28, 2004, in Maple Shade, New Jersey.

      Kevin you're wrong! you have it backwards! The" Spidells"are the original group who sung "So in Love" frontman lead singer Mr. Billy Lockridge and his group met as college students while matriculating to Tennessee State University. In the early 1950s created the "Spidells" and the song "So in Love." Mr. Lockridge has passed away. Later the Tymes coined/copied the song in the early 1960s then in the 90s the group All 4 One did a remake of "So in Love" and were very successful with it.

      @@NorEasterK The Spidells were formed in 1962, by four students from Tennessee State University. This R&B vocal harmony group was comprised of Billy Lockridge (lead and second tenor), James Earl Smith (senior student, second lead and first tenor), Nathaniel Shelton (tenor), Lee Roy Cunningham (baritone / tenor) and Michael Young (bass / baritone). Sam Jones, of The Astors from Memphis, remembers being introduced to them by Larry Lee at the Club Del Morocco as early as 1962. Lee was associated with the group at that time, perhaps as part of the supporting band but also as songwriter.
