"I'll Be Around" is a song recorded by the American #RAndB vocal group #TheSpinners (known as "Detroit Spinners" in the UK). It was co-written by #ThomBell and #PhilHurtt and produced by Bell. Recorded at Philadelphia's #SigmaSoundStudios, the house band #MFSB provided the backing. The production of the song gives it a smooth, mid-tempo feel, with the signature guitar riff (in octaves) played by #NormanHarris at the forefront.
