The five-brother singing group Tavares, best known for such uptempo disco-era singles as the million-selling "Heaven Must Be Missing an Angel," "More Than a Woman," and "Whodunit," first came to national attention with a pair of hit ballads released in 1973 and 1974: the luscious "Check It Out," a Top Five R&B single, and a cover of Daryl Hall and John Oates' "She's Gone," which topped the R&B chart. The quintet, which hailed from New Bedford, Massachusetts, went on to release ten additional Top Ten R&B singles through 1983. ~ Ed Hogan
