The Real Thing

The Real Thing with original vocalists  Chris Amoo and Dave Smith enjoyed success in both the ‘70s & ‘80s with three Top 10 singles. The number one hit You To Me Are Everything, Can’t Get By Without You and Can You Feel The Force. All these tracks are still featured daily on major UK Radio stations.
