Everything: The Real Thing Story
afropop: the ultimate cultural exchange

EVERYTHING: THE REAL THING STORY is a celebration of four lads from Liverpool, dubbed "the black Beatles" by the British tabloids, who recount their incredible story from the tough streets of Toxteth- an inner-city area of Liverpool- to the bright lights of New York. A journey of international stardom as Britain's pioneering million-selling soul and funk band. Against a backdrop of prejudice and political turmoil in the 1970s, The Real Thing were the first all-black British band to hit #1 in the UK pop charts.
