Bill Benson's findings, published in The Law That Never Was, make a convincing case that the 16th amendment was not legally ratified and that Secretary of State Philander Knox was not merely in error, but committed fraud when he declared it ratified in February 1913.
The group is also listed as the Detroit Spinners and the Motown Spinners, due to their 1960s recordings with the Motown label. These other names were used in the UK to avoid confusion with a British folk group also called The Spinners. In 2015, they were nominated for induction into the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame.
As the mighty SPINNERS would say, ITâS ASHAME that a group like THE SPINNERS ARE not already in the rock & roll hall of fame. To me it should be called the rock & roll hall of SHAME. I DIDNâT get a chance to vote for THE SPINNERS. Because I found out about the voting going on to late. As Iâm sure many people did.
