  • Kool & The Gang had 4 previous names that i know of...but none were the Appointments.

  • I did wonder if they were from detroit   maybe  an unreleased  track  under a pseudonym

To be honest with you I’m sick and tired of Appointments there seems to be more and more f them every week, I feel like cancelling them there are far to many of them for my liking even more than the drifters LoL,

They are a real mystery

Rumour has it they became   kool and the gang, but but that wouldn't  make sense  as they had the first release  on delite  in 67  to year prior to the appointments

There were no copyright filings for any of the songs.  None of the songs appear on Songview (BMI).  Gene Redd does not have any other songs written with B. Moore, who might have been a member of this group, or with J. Hightower.  No one has added a comment on any YouTube clip.  There is one mention in Record World, but otherwise the music publications did not mention this group or its releases.

I've reached all of those dead ends as well .. I did once get an address and number on Gene Redd but missed him by 3 months ... It's far too late to contact Sharon Redd ... Always had a suspicion she might be Stormy Wynters on Mercury .. has anybody ever touched base with Penny Ford ?

I asked Elsie Gray in case they were a "borrowed" recording from Detroit when Gene was there, but she did not know them
