The versions of "The Four Seasons" and that of "The Spinners" are compared. Turned into a hit by both The Four Seasons and Spinners, Working My Way Back To You is a popsoul classic that keeps on returning. In the mid60s. One of the best Four Seasons songs of this era is a big hit in 1966. The Four Seasons also benefited from a crew of totally ontheball songwriters, including their own Bob Gaudio, and the New York Citybased duo Denny Randell and Sandy Linzer. They came up with Working My Way Back To You, a highly infectious song. Recorded in the recognised Bob Crewe manner, at the poppy end of R&B. Released on 2 January 1966, The Four Seasons’ version of Working My Way Back To You made the US Top 10 and became very wellknown in the UK, even if it didn’t make the Top 40 over there. It went on to become the title track of The Four Seasons’ first album of 1966, opening proceedings with the big hit, in the typical 60s pop manner.
The Spinners, an american soul group, originally from the Detroit, MI area, associated with the Motown soul sound in the 1960s, as well as Thom Bell's Philadelphia soul sound in the 1970s. Original members: Bobby Smith, George Dixon, Billy Henderson, Henry Fambrough, Pervis Jackson.
The group formed in the early 1960s. The group then signed with Motown records. In the early 1970s, Motown dropped the group, and they signed with Atlantic, who released another run of singles. Their biggest hit came in 1980 with the Working My Way Back To You, which reached #2 on the Billboard charts in 1980, and was produced, arranged, conducted by Michael Zager. The song took a bit of a rest after all that hard work, and, aside from a few unsuccessful cover versions, next raised its head above the pop parapet in 1979, when the Detroit soul group Spinners performed it as part of a medley with Forgive Me Girl. This cunning conjunction of two songs gelled perfectly, delivered in a relentless but nonetheless soulful disco style, boasting a beautiful lead vocal from John Edwards. Though Spinners had been one of the most successful soul acts of the 70s, with singles such as Ghetto Child still ranking among the best soul songs of the decade, their flow of hits had dried up somewhat before Working My Way Back To You/Forgive Me Girl came along. Making No.2 in the US in the spring of 1980, and hitting No.1 in the UK, it was the group’s biggest hit for three years.
