Hal and Harold Degraffenreid. Real birth twins, born in Burlington, North Carolina 8th May 1944, but moved to Detroit in 1957. They sang in church choirs and were “discovered” singing gospel music by producer Johnny Griffith who recognised their special talent. Griffith recorded them in April 1966 cutting the northern soul anthem “Quick Change Artist” at their first session. The mood of their 45s changed in 1968 when Griffiths recognised that the guys were better suited to a more “southern” approach. This trend started with a version of Otis Redding’s “Mr Pitiful” For the next 45 Griffiths at last achieved an environment that showed how good the Twins were.
