The group's number one single, the 1977 Motown potpourri "Uptown Festival," featured a bevy of faceless studio musicians; once it became a hit, Griffey decided to configuration a performing grouping under the name Shalamar. Through Soul Train, Griffey set up Jody Watley, Jeffrey Daniels, and Gerald Brown, the triplet vocalists that became Shalamar; Brown was apace replaced by Howard Hewitt in 1978. Shalamar's string of poppy dance-soul hits began in 1979 with "Take That to the Bank"; later that year, "The Second Time Around" strike the Top Ten. Throughout the early '80s the group were favorites on the U.S. R&B scene, as easily as grading a turn of British strike singles. Watley and Daniels leftfield the group in 1982 and were replaced by Delisa Davis and Micki Free in 1984; Watley went on to stardom as a solo move. The undermentioned year Shalamar won a Grammy awarding for "Don't Get Stopped in Beverly Hills," which was featured in Beverly Hills Cop. Hewitt leftfield for a solo calling in 1986, signaling the end of the band's vocation as hit-makers. Sidney Justin replaced Hewitt and the grouping recorded 1987's Circumstantial Evidence, which was a commercial dashing hopes. The grouping weakened away before long after the discharge of 1990's Heat Up.
