		The Trammps ' first album was viewed as an early disco effort, and while there is a good amount of disco here, it's fair to say that it's pretty Philly soul-rooted disco.
		Away from the soul-funk-disco train, there was silky pillow talk balladry ("Every Dream I Dream Is You," "Down Three Dark Streets") and a lightly discofied cover of the Isley Brothers ' "Shout," though it might have been the instrumental "Trammps Disco Theme" that pointed most firmly to their future successes.

	The Trammps : Biography - CMT.com
		But by the time they'd gone through various identities and emerged as the Trammps in the mid-'70s, the lineup featured lead vocalist Ellis, Norman Harris, and Stanley Wade, Robert Upchurch and Young.
		Despite their well-deserved reputation and boisterous, jubilant harmonies and sound, the Trammps were never a huge commercial success even during disco's heyday.
		But the Trammps' prowess can't be measured by chart popularity; Ellis' booming, joyous vocals brilliantly championed the celebratory fervor and atmosphere that made disco both loved and hated among music fans.

	Disco fans get a boogie night - The Boston Globe
		Earl Young of the Trammps told the crowd that it was "family," then urged everyone to "turn around and shake hands with somebody." No, this wasn't a religious service, but the mania for the music was its own religion.
		That got boring in a large tent, and the groups that played with human accompaniment fared much better: KC and the Sunshine Band and the Trammps (playing with KC's group), who bookended this three-hour night of nostalgia.
		The Trammps opened with snappy choreography and with leader Young ripping impressively through early hits "Disco Inferno" and "Hold Back the Night." King worked hard in her set (highlighted by "Shame" and "I'm in Love"), but again, the canned backup hurt her.

		While the Trammps disco-hit years featured a line-up that included players never involved with the Volcanos, "Sixty Minute Man" was created by four of the five Volcanos.
		With the exception of Volcanos lead singer Gene Jones (or Gene Faith depending on the source), all members of the Volcanos that were a part of "A Lady's Man" were part of "Sixty Minute Man." More information on the varying line-ups of the Volcanos/Trammps can be found at Soulful Kinda Music.

	The Trammps, by Bill Pollak
		Cult favorites of the early disco underground, the Trammps were an exciting and innovative vocal group whose exuberant dance records helped ignite the disco explosion of the 1970s.
		Building respectfully on the models of the past, the Trammps added a Philadelphia dance beat to 1950s doo-wop to create some of the strongest vocal-group records of the 1970s.
		The key elements of the Trammps unique sound were the hard-edged soul shouting of lead singer Jimmy Ellis and the deep, pumping bass singing of Earl Young, who doubled as the drummer for TSOP (the sound of Philadelphia), the extraordinary rhythm section behind the great Gamble & Huff-produced Philadelphia sound of the 70s.

		Two years later the Trammps completed their tour de force, 'Disco Inferno', which featured in the film Saturday Night Fever, and irrevocably linked their name to the dancefloor.
		The group's instigators, Young and Ellis, remained at the helm, alongside Stan and Harold Wade and baritone Robert Upchurch.
		There changes could not, however, halt the Trammps' commercial slide when the disco bubble burst and their 80s' releases made little impression on either the soul or pop charts.

		One characteristic of the Trammps sound was the lovely vocal harmonies as in The Night The Lights Went Out and the moving love song Hooked For Life.
		The Trammps are such an underated group, and if disco inferno had not been so successful due to the popularity of Saturday Night Fever this fantastic group may not have had much publicity.

		The band's first single was actually a cover of Judy Garland's "Zing Went the Strings of My Heart" -- a far cry from the jubilant, celebratory sound the band is associated with.
		What separated the Trammps from their disco contemporaries was their incorporation of the famous "Philadelphia soul sound" (made popular by bands like the Spinners and the Stylistics) into their highly produced dance music.
		But it was disco with a soulful, R&B base -- a far cry from disco poster boys, the Brothers Gibb.
