The Equals are an English pop, R&B and rock group formed in North London in 1965. They are best remembered for their million-selling chart-topper "Baby, Come Back", though they had several other chart hits in the UK and Europe. Eddy Grant founded the group with John Hall, Pat Lloyd, and brothers Derv and Lincoln Gordon, and they were noted as being "the first major interracial rock group in the UK" and "one of the few racially mixed bands of the era".

  • The Equals was een Britse popgroep uit de jaren 60 en 70 van de twintigste eeuw. Het was de eerste multiraciale groep die enige erkenning kreeg in Engeland. Ze werden met name bekend door hun hit . De band werd in 1965 opgericht in Londen door de uit Guyana afkomstige Eddy Grant en de uit Jamaica afkomstige tweelingbroers Derv en Lincoln Gordon. De andere bandleden waren Pat Lloyd en John Hall. De bandnaam verwijst naar de gelijkheid binnen de groep van blanke en zwarte bandleden. In 1976 hield de band op te bestaan. Eddy Grant was toen inmiddels een solo-carrière gestart. (nl)
