The Original Spinners is the 1967 debut album by The Spinners for Motown Records. The LP includes the group's earliest singles on the label, as well as their first ever single "That's What Girls Are Made For". None of the group's other material from Tri-Phi appear on this album. The lineup on the cover features Bobby Smith, Edgar "Chico" Edwards, Henry Fambrough, Billy Henderson, and Pervis Jackson. Former member George Dixon actually only appears on "That's What Girls Are Made For", The other tracks all feature Edwards. This is both Dixon's and Edwards' only appearance on an Spinners studio album. The album notes state that members Bobby Smith and Edgar "Chico" Edwards share most of the lead vocals on stage. However other than "Tomorrow May Never Come", where he does the lead vocal in unison with Smith and Henry Fambrough, Edwards does not have any other leads on this album.
