South Carolina - The Flirtations

You sometimes have to travel far for success.  The Flirtations found that out firsthand.  They were a R&B group that had very little luck here in the US. After a few years of struggling to make the musical career work, the group packed up and went to England looking for a new start.  After signing with Parrot Records in 1968, they toured with with Parrot's star act, Tom Jones, on his European tour.

With some significant success in Europe, this group faded into obscurity until several of their songs were rediscovered and revived in dance and disco versions in the 2000's.

Happy listening!
