In a time where vocal-less vocalists sit at the forefront of Pop the duo Louis York are a reminder that raw talent is anything but a thing of the past…even if it often seems that way.

Made up of the cut-creators Chuck Harmony and Claude Kelly the act first stepped onto the scene with the number ‘Clair Huxtable’ and return with their second single ‘Good Drinks, Dumb Jokes’ which appears on their forthcoming release ‘Masterpiece Theater Act I.’

Welcome back to TGJ Replay!

Designed much like our ‘Retro Rewind’ and ‘From the Vault’ features, ‘Replay’ is That Grape Juice‘s newest reflective segment to act as a written quest to re-spin the gems and jams of yesterday. Unlike its TGJ retrospective predecessors, ‘Replay’ looks to dust off and showcase entire albums (and eras) from a library of pop and Urban pop music hits.

Kelly Rowland is keeping the teasers coming.

Readers of That Grape Juice know what avid music lovers we are – especially of hits past.

So, just as our retrospective features ‘From the Vault’ and ‘TGJ Replay’  allow us the chance to re-spin the gems and jams of yesterday of one artist, our newest feature Chart Rewind – a variation of our current Retro Rewind assay – accedes salutes to an entire era of music history.

On this #FBF we press play on splash hit ‘Waterfalls,’ the now signature song for R&B trio TLC.  Giving the girls the second #1 hit of their careers, the tune – found aboard their top-selling ‘CrazySexyCool’ album – notched an impressive 7 week reign atop the Billboard Hot 100 in 1995.

This week (that year) would be its last roost on the perch of the Hot 100 for the songbirds of TLC as, just one week later, they would be kissed goodbye by crooner Seal‘s signature hit ‘Kiss From a Rose.’

Check below to see what other familiar faces you see in the top 20 this week in 1995:
