Riff

Riff is an American R&B and soul a cappella group from Paterson, New Jersey. The group RIFF appeared in the 1989 biographical-drama film, Lean on Me starring Morgan Freeman as the 'Songbirds' in the bathroom scene. They recorded two albums in the 1990s. Three of the members (Anthony Fuller, Dwayne Jones, and Michael Best) joined Men of Vizion but have since returned and the group has re-formed with two new members. They are still performing and making songs.
==Links to Peel==
Peel did an interview with Riff on his 23 June 1991 show, where they performed three a cappella tracks, including a cover of Don & Juan's 'What's Your Name' and the Temptations', 'My Girl'. Peel mentioned that he discovered the group when he saw them do an a cappella in a studio for a different radio station earlier in the week and was impressed by their performance. However, he never played any of their records or their latest single at the time of their interview with him.
