It also reached number three on the Billboard singles chart. Although the Coasters had previously done well on the #rhythmAndBlues charts, "Searchin'" (along with "#YoungBlood" on the flip side) sparked the group's #rockAndRoll fame.

WTFunk, why haven't I heard these cats before? #Detroit's #Enchantment had a number one #RhythmAndBlues hit with this tune in 1978. Really nice arrangement, just enough to move it along without getting overheated. They had a few more hits and wrote some tunes for other bands, I gotta check those out, too. Cheers! 🎢 πŸ‘ 😁 #Music #Michigan #Soul #Funk https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=L3xXGE9V9CQ
