| ***** Ever notice how often it's relatives up there on stage making such sweet music together ?? About as often as not I think, there's someone else from the family playing in that band .... singing in that group ..... messing up those dance steps ...... Shall we sort through them ?? Some obvious ones first : Sister Sledge (sisters) Jacksons (brothers) Bee Gees (brothers) Isley Bros. (brothers) ABBA (spouses) Next !!? *****

| I can only come up with a negative example: The Ritchie Family. The original members were not related if my memory serves me right. |

The Carpenters Womack & Womack The Neville brothers The Osmonds The Brothers Johnson ...And I just know I'm missing plenty, but that's all I can think of for now. Oh yeah, and the Andrews Sisters.

| Great topic. Trammps (Wade Brothers) Instant Funk (Kim and Scott Miller) MFSB & Yellow Sunshine (Roland and Karl Chambers) MFSB, etc... (Thom, Tony & Leroy Bell) Since we're also mentioning soul funk groups: The Meters (the Nevilles) The Delfonics (the Harts) Sisters Love The JBs (Melvin and Maceo Parker) For Sly & The Family Stone, it was the Stewart Brothers & sister (Koolchris just said 'brothers') Scott Brothers Orchestra (I can't find info on them, but I'm guessing they were really brothers named scott. Backed up Alvin Cash on Keep On Dancin') I'll add more when I think of them. Disco Funk |
