Best known for their legendary hits 'You To Me Are Everything', 'Can't Get By Without You' and 'Can You Feel The Force', as well as their ground-breaking 1977 song, 'Children Of The Ghetto', The Real Thing remain Britain's most successful black group of all-time. Pioneers in soul, funk and dance music, the journalist, author and founder of MOJO magazine Paul Du Noyer credits them alongside Deaf School with restoring "Liverpool's musical reputation in the 1970s" with their success.

The two original members - Chris Amoo and Dave Smith - are now celebrating over 45 years in the music industry. Still gigging across the world, the band's success and longevity is unprecedented in British entertainment history.
