History
"You're Too Late" was a number-one dance hit in the United States. It had a five-week reign at the top of the Billboard Hot Dance Club Play chart in early 1981.[1] It also reached the top 30 on the Soul Singles chart.[2]
In 1982, the band released a pop-soul number entitled "Hold On Tight", which peaked at number 35 on the Dance Club chart, and #1 on the 1982 Billboard Year End Award followed by "Live the Life I Love", boogie song that had reached number 41 on the same chart by 1983.
Their last successful track titled "He's Number One" reached number 37 on the Dance chart in 1986.[1]
