THE DRAMATICS - Whatcha See Is Whatcha Get

The Dramatics formed in Detroit, Michigan in 1964, originally performing and recording as The  Dynamics. When the band released their second record in 1966, the label was misprinted changing their name to The Dramatics. The group eventually ended up signed to Stax-Volt, and in 1971 they had their first big hit with Whatcha See Is Whatcha Get. The song was the title track off their first album, which also featured the hit song In The Rain. Shortly after their successful debut, the group split up into two groups - each one claiming ownership of the group's name. The two groups toured and recorded separately for years before a court finally ruled on their battle over the name. The group that lost the name then became A Dramatic Experience.
