Apparently Joe didn't want them to be on any tour his family was on and it's understandable, because as a group The Sylvers blow The Jacksons out of the water. MJ is the only reason The Jacksons sold millions of records.
The harmony is STILL in tact! Always Loved the Sylvers even though they were UNDERRATED. Foster did an excellent job doing the songs Edmund originally lead.
Beautiful tribute. God bless their parents, both brothers Edmund, and Chris May they all rest in peace. I lo💗ed this! Wish I were there. Misdemeanor, Forever Yours, Hotline and Boogie Fever GAVE ME LIFE! Thanks for posting this. God Bless the Sylvers and continue to cover them, Lord.
Loved this performance, they still have the moves and harmony and guess what... The Jacksons can't even do this anymore, they were called the bootleg version but Unsung taught us better! Angie was moving her butt off and singing so well, they all were but she's really noticable in this. Love how Foster gives God the glory for his perseverance!
Not to mention the number of so incredibly beautiful songs (lyrics, vocal arrangements, horns, guitar solos, bass lines, hooks, chorus, synth riffs, oh man... I've been watching Sylvers - Come on Back official video at least 3 times a day for almost a week... On tears not by sadness but by the beauty of their work.
enjoyed them thoroughly as a child and enjoying them even more as an adult... im glad i was there theyr'e still in my favorites of all time.....Rip Edmund
Foster Definitely Did a Excellent 👍🏾 Job, Especially with "Hot Line" doing Edmunds Lead. I Really Wish They would induct This Group into The Rock-N-Roll Hall of Fame, They Definitely Earned Their Stripes over the Years Up until Now. Great 👍🏾 Show by The Sylvers. Shalom Fam ✊🏾🧔🏾👍🏾
The SyLvers are Fantastic ! My best friend used to Live two houses down the street from them on AngeLo drive in BeverLy GLen in the 1970's ! His name was Sammy Sosna and we used to aLways be out in front of their home and pLay and have fun . . .I stiLL have a crush on Angie ! Big Hugs FoLks . . .Sending Love . . . ALL GLory to our Father Christ Jesus ! ! ! BLessings and Joy and Freedom and Victory in His Precious BLood and Living Word and HoLy and Mighty Name . . .
I can't even count the number of times I've watched this concert and the Sylvers Unsung episode on RUclips. Probably because it's the only thing available to watch about them now, but I've always loved this beautiful group so much. Was finally able to get their first three albums on CD after waiting for decades but I hope they'll record those last two gorgeous songs from this concert too, especially the one they wrote about love and loss. My opinion only but I think it was songs like those that truly showcased their real talent. Not taking anything away from Boogie Fever or Hot Line. Am glad those tunes brought them a measure of success. But neither of those songs had the depth or creativity Leon was known for. Neither were on Cry Of A Dreamer level. Those last slow songs (in addition to Fool's Paradise and their early music) made me remember what the Sylvers were really about. I hope God blesses them ten fold for everything those crook producers stole.
The Sylvers are one of the greatest Groups ever. Dance tunes never have the depth of regular tunes because the strength have to be in the "BEAT" so we can "Dance Dance Dance" !!! LOL...
@@miadellahayman2491 Lol! ☺ For me I guess it's just a matter of preference because I love listening to their harmony in the slower songs. The Sylvers could do it ALL though! They could dance their behinds off on their fast paced songs. Remember watching them do "Free Style" on Soul Train? 😉 They were just the total package: a gorgeous looking group that could harmonize on those ballads and dance up a storm on their fast ones too! Their choreography was something else!
BEAUTIFUL ❤ The Sylver's are so UNSUNG! I hear the grandbaby singing along, reminds me of how we lil kids had the Boogie Fever real bad 🥰 It's a "lovely feeling" to have grown up knowing & appreciating great music fm true legends
hope to see more Sylvers reunion shows...make your way to DC ya'll Bethesda Blues & Jazz or Birchmere... we waiting in DMV (that stands for DC, Maryland (suburbs and Virginia suburbs)
Back in the 70's my mom took my brother, sister and I to Disneyland and Magic Mountain driving from the Bay Area the Sylvers were on the radio the entire trip at the time they were my favorite group. To my surprise they were performing live at Magic Mountain it was my first concert ever. I also remember them performing on Soul Train Pat was a pretty girl then she's a beautiful woman now.
Me too! They recorded my first published song way back in 1974 when I was still a babe, and I toured with them as their bassist at the height of their success.. but I never tire of their amazing harmonies and positive spiritual energy!
Hmm!...you do realize that Leon was voted out, their manager at that time pitted the group against each other ( this is what they do!) Leon's more mature songwriting would've taken the group farther but the manager thought otherwise, wanted to keep them singing youthful pop songs ( to compete with J-5 no doubt) Had they chose to fire their manager & stay with Leon, they would've been more successful!
If Michael Jackson weren’t in J5 , the Silvers would have been number 1 family group. They just like the Debarge family had everyone singing great. Mike and a little bit of Jermaine had voices, but everyone else weren’t stand out singers. Alll the Sylvers and Debarge members could do solo if they had too. Savers were underaged, go check them out with harmony’s on those old Ed Sullivan shows, the were kill in it as babies!
But I MUST HAVE TO OBSERVE, almost everyone there just watching them thru their cell phones, like cyber monkeys. Feelingless way to capture the vibe; So cold and sad...
Whooooooo They Rocked that Fools Paradise Yesss Suuhhhhh!!! Salute
The sylvers really do need to be in the rock roll hall of fame they are the best group from the 70 much respect to the SYLVERS ❤❤❤
They really need to get their flowers.
Sylvers deserve to be in the Rock N Roll Hall of Fame, they earned it and still got it!!!!
YES! I still listen to Misdemeanor.
I Totally Agree 💯, They is One of My Favorite R&B Groups ✊🏾🧔🏾👍🏾
Absolutely 🥰
At any Music Hall Of Fame. They left big tracks we see today followed by many R&B groups. A Phenomenal group with great songs.
Yes
Boy, that was a fun romp around the musical playground of my youth. Thanks Sylvers, each of you, for all the years you've shared your musical gifts!!!
I'd pay to see them. Get a tour going y'all!!
nice to see Olympia up there still jamming
Leon's production skills was off the chain!
Leon is the true star of the family. Named after his dad who was a musician. R.I.P Leon sr
Can’t stop watching this Sylvers concert. Loved it!!! Please do another live concert soon. Love this family!
Somebody please bring them back they deserve to be recognized for their music 🎶 💙💙💙
Wish yall could tour with the Jacksons. Its a Love thang❣❣Awesome Job Sylvers. Thanks for the Beautiful Prayer Foster.❣❣
Apparently Joe didn't want them to be on any tour his family was on and it's understandable, because as a group The Sylvers blow The Jacksons out of the water. MJ is the only reason The Jacksons sold millions of records.
Listening to The Sylvers' version of Shalamar puts a huge smile on my face. =)
The harmony is STILL in tact! Always Loved the Sylvers even though they were UNDERRATED.
Foster did an excellent job doing the songs Edmund originally lead.
How were they underrated and they had hits why do folks use the word underrated on RUclips so darn much
Beautiful tribute. God bless their parents, both brothers Edmund, and Chris May they all rest in peace. I lo💗ed this! Wish I were there. Misdemeanor, Forever Yours, Hotline and Boogie Fever GAVE ME LIFE! Thanks for posting this. God Bless the Sylvers and continue to cover them, Lord.
High School Dance!
Amem!
Just beautiful awesome may their spirit always be in our hearts ❤️🙏
I AM WIT' IT! My first album was a Sylvers album! Not to mention that Leon Sylvers was the finest dude on the planet! ALright, NOW!
Edmund was too 😁
@@MelanieNevaeh227 You know it!! All those brothers were fine, and the sisters were gorgeous. Oh, those were indeed the days.....
BET, Soul Train and The Rock and Roll Hall of Fame needs to honor The Sylvers ASAP!!!!!!!
Will always be a fan. Sylvers just be strong for each other. I miss Edmund, I love you all.
it nice to see Foster I heard he went through the ringer
Loved this performance, they still have the moves and harmony and guess what... The Jacksons can't even do this anymore, they were called the bootleg version but Unsung taught us better!

This is wonderful just seeing them together as a family pushing through. After everything they’ve had deal with. Still sounding good amazing 😉
Not to mention the number of so incredibly beautiful songs (lyrics, vocal arrangements, horns, guitar solos, bass lines, hooks, chorus, synth riffs, oh man...
I've been watching Sylvers - Come on Back official video at least 3 times a day for almost a week...
On tears not by sadness but by the beauty of their work.
James, Ricky, Pat, Foster, Angie, Leon, Olympia
Yaw still badd... Harmony is the same, tight. Olympia, your still fine girl! Wish I had met you. Blessings.

This concert was amazing!! The Sylvers are horribly underrated. Leon's writing and production is next level!! Bless them all!!

One of my favorite groups. The babies in the background yelling grandma at the beginning did it for me!😂😂
Very nice to see them all perform live after all these years!

Wish That I Could Talk To You... the first 45 I ever bought! The memories of the days eclipse these... the moronic password era. 🎸

talent, tight production, real talent
Wow I'm glad hi stumble upon this video , love thiis family from way back and Leon is my favorite so smooth sexy.
Oh man 💥💥💥💥💥💥💥💥👊🏾👊🏾👊🏾👊🏾👊🏾👊🏾👊🏾
Wow this is wonderful I didn’t know that they wrote some very popular songs from the 80’s
still sound fucking great
If I can find a clip of them performing one of my favorite 80s classic Bizarre, my life will be complete
Great performance and the harmony is still tight! Was there any video footage of their performance on Tom Joyner Cruise?
They didn't get a chance to do the Tom Joyner Cruise.I'm sure they will be making a appearance in the near future.🤗🤗
Very impressive I love this group
40:35 Leon had them turn Foster's mic off to make him get his @$$ back on stage 😂😂😂😅😂 🤣
Are they going on the road?????? (Please say yes)
Why didn't they do my favorite song....FALLING FOR YOUR LOVE..????
Come and sell out The Birchmere in Alexandria, VA
39:37 y'all betta STEP!!!!!
why! ("Olympia, )Seating & Not! Singing! Watching Video, 2021! A Salute To The " Sylvers!! family for Nice Music.. Good luck!
🎵 She is singing ! 🎶 😊
39:30 the only reason The Sylvers are remembered today.
I wanted to marry Foster when I was little. He's still fine ❤️
Lol. That was a long line😊
The man who built solar.....
Leon sylvers
Just imagine if Leon had not split with the group.
Hmm!...you do realize that Leon was voted out, their manager at that time pitted the group against each other ( this is what they do!) Leon's more mature songwriting would've taken the group farther but the manager thought otherwise, wanted to keep them singing youthful pop songs ( to compete with J-5 no doubt)

Savers were underaged, go check them out with harmony’s on those old Ed Sullivan shows, the were kill in it as babies!
Hamilton High Memphis 10
Why wasnt Olympia on stage
I thought she was the one with the blonde hair on the very end
But I MUST HAVE TO OBSERVE, almost everyone there just watching them thru their cell phones, like cyber monkeys.
Feelingless way to capture the vibe; So cold and sad...
Charmaine?
She was sitting in the audience 🙂
They had some stanky 80s Funk music, I'm surprised they didn't play any of those hits.
HOW DID I MISS THIS CONCERT? I LEFT CA IN 2018 THAT IS HOW. SUCKS FOR ME
