Early members were Robin Corley, Victor Jones, Bobby Douglas and Glenn Wallace.
"Standing on the Verge (Of Gettin' It On)" was a hit in the UK and made the Billboard charts in the U.S.. After leaving Motown they signed with RCA and released an EP, 'Watching You', in 1983.
The Hook's first, self-titled album was recently re-mastered and re-released in Japan, the Netherlands and the UK and is available for purchase as an import on Amazon and other music outlets.
The band's ability as musicians guaranteed they always had work, and they were on the bill with such greats as The Commodores, Kool and the Gang, Sister Sledge (for whom they also played backup) and many others.
The Hook toured heavily in the States as well including playing the Kool Jazz Fest in 1978, '79, and early 80's.
