Legendary R&B group The Manhattans
will bring their doo-wop and soulful sounds to the Suncoast Showroom, June 16
and 17.
Named after the cocktail of whiskey,
vermouth and bitters, The Manhattans formed in the early ‘60s. Their first hit on
the Billboard charts was the 1964
song, “I Wanna Be (Your Everything),” the first of eight singles for the group,
nearly all in the Top 30.
The group rose to prominence in 1972
with the release of “One Life to Live,” which went to No. 3 on the US R&B
charts. A follow up single, “There’s No Me Without You” also topped at No. 3 on
the charts. In the mid-‘70s, The Manhattans achieved top 10 success again with
“Don’t Take Your Love” and “Hurt.”
Superstardom came in 1976, when “Kiss
and Say Goodbye” became their first No. 1 hit on both the Pop and R&B
charts. It also became only the second platinum single in history. Follow-up hits
include “I Kinda Miss You,” ”It Feels So Good to Be Loved So Bad,” “We Never
Danced a Love Song” and “Am I Losing You.”
The recordings of “Shining Star,”
“Crazy” and the cover of Sam Cooke’s “You Send Me” kept The Manhattans at the
top of the charts into the early ‘80s.
The group continued to release new music over the next several decades,
including 2001’s “Nites Like This.”
Showtime each evening is 7:30 p.m.
Tickets are available from $15.95, plus tax and fees. Tickets can be purchased
at any Coast Casinos box office, by calling 702.636.7075, or visiting www.suncoastcasino.com.
