One of the most overlooked of 1960s soul groups, the Tams -- led by Joe Pope's gravel-voiced lead vocals -- are long overdue for a reappraisal. From their first hit, the Joe South-penned "Untie Me" from 1962, through the impossibly infectious pop-soul of 1964's "Hey Girl Don't Bother Me" and 1968's amazingly wise "Be Young, Be Foolish, Be Happy," the Tams have a stellar track record.
