I never knew of the song "I'm Doin' Fine" honestly... until around the late 80's as it appears on my SOUL HITS OF THE 70'S CD. With Thom Bell producing the group... you would have figured they'd do some more... This group sounds so much like THE SPINNERS..


You are so right E, they do sound like the Spinners! The comparison never crept into my mind till you brought it up and I played the album once more.
