'The Toys' featuring Barbara Harris Dance Band from Elizabeth, NJ

In September of 1965 a record was released that was to become an international, all-time classic. 'A LOVERS CONCERTO' (aka 'How Gentle is the Rain') by 'THE TOYS' entered the charts and in just ten short weeks surpassed luminaries the likes of 'THE BEATLES, THE SUPREMES, ELVIS PRESLEY, THE ROLLING STONES,THE FOUR TOPS, STEVIE WONDER' etc.. The song reached NUMBER ONE and stayed there for six weeks, becoming a million seller. The voice singing lead, was that of Ms. Barbara Harris. The success of 'THE TOYS' carried Barbara to countries all over the world, England, Holland, Germany, Japan, Australia, etc. 'THE TOYS' have also made many TV appearances. 'SHINDIG', 'HULLABULLOO', 'AMERICAN BANDSTAND', 'MIRV GRIFFIN', 'JOEY BISHOP', 'UPBATE', 'CLAY COLE SHOW' just to name a few. She regularly Performs the Meadowlands singing in Mr. Richard Nader's shows and Westbury Music Fair in Mr. Dick Fox's shows. Barbara never liked to be tied to one style of music, which is what made her local band so much fun. Each night she performed 20 to 30 songs and did Gospel, blues, R&B, Rock, and Pop. This is what makes Barbara and 'The Toys' such a crowd pleaser. Their repertoire swings from very soft and tasty dinner music to 'dance floor packin rockers'. Areatha Franklin to The Doobie Bros, back to Tina Turner and again to Celine Dione and Taylor Dane, to Gladys Knight and the Pips back to James Taylor, etc. If your looking for your dance floor to stay packed, and a show thats a little different, 'The Toys' may be just what your looking for.
