An American soul music duo active in the 1960s and early 1970s, best known for the hit Backfield in Motion.

Mel Hardin and Tim McPherson were cousins from Holly Springs, Mississippi, who travelled to Chicago where they were discovered by Gene Chandler. Hardin's mother and McPherson's aunt, Yolanda Hardin, helped the duo with their publicity as she was once a singer herself. She signed them to a recording contract with her Bamboo Records label and they recorded their own song Backfield in Motion. It was immediately successful, reaching #3 on the Billboard R&B chart and #10 in the pop equivalent in 1969. Their follow-up song was Good Guys Only Win in the Movies, which was also the name of their first album.

They subsequently moved to the Stax label, where they recorded a second Top 5 R&B hit with the ballad Starting All Over Again, released in 1972. It also climbed to #16 on the Hot 100 and stayed in that chart for 22 weeks and was their second million seller. It was also the title track of their second album in 1972, recorded in Muscle Shoals. They performed at the Wattstax charity concert that year, but later recordings could not repeat their earlier successes.
