Recording the singles 'And the Beat Goes On' and 'Rock Steady'

Why they might be annoying:

They may be mistaken for the Australian rock band Ray Brown & the Whispers.
Outside the R&B scene, they are two-hit wonders.
One of their albums was titled 'Whisper in Your Ear.'
Younger people will probably know them more for their song 'And the Beat Goes On' being sampled in Will Smith's single 'Miami.'

Why they might not be annoying:

'And the Beat Goes On' reached number 30 on the Billboard Hot 100 in 1980 and reached number 26 on that same chart due to a re-release in 1987.
Their highest charting single 'Rock Steady' reached number 7 on the Billboard Hot 100 in 1987.
They sang 'The Star Spangled Banner' prior to the start of Game 2 of the 1989 World Series.
In 2003, they were inducted into The Vocal Group Hall of Fame.
