The Whispers are a R&B/ dance vocal group from Los Angeles California. Original members included twin brothers Walter and Wallace Scott, along with Gordy Harmon, Marcus Hutson and Nicholas Caldwell. In 1973 Harmon was replaced by former Friends Of Distinction member Leaveil Degree. The group scored many hits on the R&B and Hot 100 charts throughout the 70s and 80s, and they hit #1 on the Hot Dance Music/Club Play chart in 1980 with "And the Beat Goes On" / "Can You Do the Boogie" / "Out the Box."

In 1987 they enjoyed a brief career resurgence when "Rock Steady" hit #1 on the R&B charts and became their first Top 10 on the Hot 100 (it reached #7). The Whispers also founded the Black Tie record label.
