The Ambassadors

1960s soul vocal group from Philadelphia, Pennsylvania.


Formed in the mid-1960’s and soon came to the attention of Arctic Record Company co-owner and Philly radio star Jimmy Bishop.
Following limited success with their three singles on Atlantic between the end of 1967 and the summer of 1968, they signed to Arctic Record Company.
They are best remembered for their one hit, "I Really Love You" which was released in 1969, as well as their sole, highly sought-after album, that have a built a myth of holy grail among the northern soul circles.
Three of the Ambassadors, Herley Johnson Jr., [a=Robert Todd] and [a2630321] later formed Creme D'Cocoa.
