The Spinners is a Detroit-based R&B club. They have had many hit records and singles since the late 1960s. Some people in the group have died, though this group continues touring and making records.
The band is also sometimes called the Detroit Spinners, or Motown Spinners. These group names were used in the UK to avoid confusion with a British folk group also called The Spinners.
