Chairmen Of The Board - In Session & The Chairmen Of The Board & Bittersweet (1970-1972) [Remastered 2018]

American soul music vocal group, active mostly in the 1970's and still touring.
When Holland-Dozier-Holland left Motown in 1967 to establish their own Invictus/Hot Wax group of record labels, General Johnson was teamed with Eddie Custis, Danny Woods & Canadian born Harrison Kennedy as the new company's flagship act, under the appropriate name "Chairmen of the Board". Custis left the group after their second album.
Although they all had a turn at lead vocals, Johnson's voice is lead on their biggest hit, "Give Me Just a Little More Time", released in December 1969, with one million sales confirmed in May 1970. Johnson's quirky hiccup-laden style and his songwriting became increasingly showcased into the 70's, although the band's second biggest hit, "Pay To The Piper" featured a lead vocal by Danny Woods.
The Chairmen of the Board were inducted into the North Carolina Music Hall of Fame in 1999.
