Peaches and Herb were actually Herb Fame (born Herbert Feemster) and Frances Barker (the first of a succession of females in the pairing), both from Washington, DC. Herb got into the music biz thanks to fellow Washington native Van McCoy. After five Top 40 singles in '67 and '68, they stepped away from show business as Herb joined the DC police force. He found a new "Peaches" and the duo had a comeback in the late 70's shakin' their groove thing.
