Their connection was one of a kind, and there is no duo like them. I enjoy listening to their songs "Mrs. Robinson" and "Bridge Over Troubled Waters".

The Flamingos

Recognized in the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame, The Flamingos brought rhythm and expression together like no other. Starting in the early 1950...
