The Manhattans are one of those classic R&B vocal groups who manage to achieve incredible career longevity by adapting their style to fit changing times. Formed in the '60s as a doo wop-influenced R&B quintet in Jersey City, NJ, the Manhattans reinvented themselves as sweet smooth soul balladeers during the '70 s. The Manhattan's continued charting hits well into the 80 s and are now the latest super group to join the successful Old School Cruizin' line up! Their success of seventeen Top 20 Singles, seven Top 20 Albums and a Grammy Award is proof enough that this R&B super group be enshrined in the R&B Hall of Fame! Of the Top 20 Singles, this cruizin' collection boasts nine, seven of which are Top 10 Singles. Old School Cruizin' with the Manhattans is really the best of the best of the Manhattans, and includes their biggest hit from 1983, 'Kiss' and 'Say Goodbye'. Thump. 2005.
