In 1981 this duo from Dallas, Texas hit the top of the R&B charts and decided to make a video in which they performed on stage. They also decided that sock puppets was the way to go for back up singers. I couldn't agree more. The sock puppets just make this video a masterpiece. Check out the childhood friends Yarbrough and Peoples with their most famous R&B hit "Don't Stop the Music"...
