The Valentinos were an American soul and R&B group formed in Cleveland, Ohio, in 1952 by the five Womack brothers-Friendly Womack Jr., Curtis Womack, Bobby Womack, Harry Womack, and Cecil Womack-who began singing in their father Friendly Womack Sr.’s church. Their first single, "Lookin' for a Love" (1962), reached number 8 on the R&B charts and number 72 on the Billboard Hot One Hundred, selling two million copies and earning them an opening slot on James Brown’s national tour. In 1964, the group released "It's All Over Now"; the Rolling Stones later covered the track in 1965, propelling it to national acclaim. The group disbanded in 1974 after the death of Harry Womack due to stabbing.
