The Glass House (group)

1

The Glass House was an American R&B/soul group from Detroit, Michigan, United States. The Glass House was an assembly of house musicians put together by Holland-Dozier-Holland for their Invictus Records label in 1969. The group was led by Ty Hunter, and included Scherrie Payne, sister of singer Freda Payne. They released two albums, "Inside the Glass House" and "Thanks I Needed That", and had a string of chart hits through 1972, although the biggest success came with their debut single, 1969's "Crumbs Off The Table." In June 1971, the Blossoms sued "Invictus Records, Stage Coach Productions, Edward J. Holland, Jr., and Capitol Records," claiming "the defendants released an Invictus single record, 'Touch Me Jesus,' and credited the performers as being 'The Glass House,' when, in fact, the Blossoms actually recorded the single." Within a year, as chart success continued to wane, Invictus dissolved the group. Shortly thereafter, Hunter and Payne signed on with Motown. Ty became part of The Originals (group), while Scherrie joined the Supremes.
