William “Poogie” Hart, lead singer of legendary Philadelphia soul act the Delfonics, has died.
. According to the report, Hart was taken to Philadelphia’s Temple University Hospital after suffering breathing difficulties and died Thursday due to complications from surgery. He was 77.
The group was one of many who worked with legendary writer-producer Bell, whose smooth, heavily orchestrated arrangements helped to create a new genre of soul music that dominated radio in the era. The Delfonics’ hits were also marked by unusual punctuation in their titles, heavy on parentheses; curiously, the original single release reads “La-La-Means I Love You.”
The group, originally called the Orphonics, was co-founded by Hart with his brother Wilbert. The two were later joined by singers Randy Cain and Major Harris. Their debut album, “La La Means I Love You,” was released in 1968 and not only featured the group’s first hit in the title track, but also the songs “Break Your Promise” and “I’m Sorry.”
