The Delfonics
The Delfonics - La-La Means I Love You
The Delfonics - Didn't I Blow Your Mind This Time - Live 1973
The Delfonics - Hey Love
The Delfonics - For The Love I Gave To You
The Delfonics were formed in Philadelphia by Randy Cain, William and Wilbert Hart and Ritchie Daniels as the Four Gents and later the Orphonics.
The group came to the attention of promoter/record shop owner Stan Watson, who introduced them to producer Thom Bell and Moon Shot Records.
They then changed their name to the Delfonics, and scored two regional hits on Moon Shot before Stan created his own Philly Groove imprint.
The Delfonics were one of the first groups to sing in the sleek, soulful style that became popularized (thanks to producer Thom Bell) as the "Philadelphia sound."
Ritchie Daniels was then drafted into the military.
The remaining trio achieved 16 pop and 20 R & B hit records, including 'La La Means I Love You' (number 4 pop, number 2 R & B in 1968), 'I'm Sorry', 'Ready Or Not Here I Come' (both 1968) and 'Didn't I (Blow Your Mind This Time)' (number 10 pop, number 3 R & B in 1970).
Their songs have been used extensively in film soundtracks, the most notable being Quentin Tarantino's 1997 movie Jackie Brown, in which "La-La (Means I Love You)" and "Didn't I Blow Your Mind" underscore the pivotal relationship between Pam Grier and Robert Forster. The film helped create a borderline cult following for the songs and this group.
Their songs have been sampled extensively by various hip-hop and rap artists including: The Fugees ("Ready or Not"), The Notorious B.I.G., Nas, Boyz II Men, Missy Elliott and DJ Jazzy Jeff & the Fresh Prince.
In addition, their songs have been covered by numerous other performers
