Guinn is a Philadelphia-based family group whose soulful harmonies and timeless R&B sound left an imprint on the 1980s music scene. The lineup featured Bonnie, Earl, Margie, Michael, Randy, Skip Guinn, and Lori Fulton, delivering tight vocal blends that captured the era’s spirit. Their self-titled Motown debut, Guinn, arrived in 1986 and included the original version of the track Dreamin'. While Guinn’s version didn’t chart at the time, the song later gained wider recognition when Vanessa Williams covered it in 1988, achieving chart success across multiple outlets. A remastered edition, Guinn (Remastered), was released in 2012 by Essential Media Group, helping to reintroduce the group to new listeners and collectors. This page provides a detailed look at Guinn’s history, key recordings, and the legacy that continues to influence artists today.
