In the body of the article, it says they named their group like the popular group, The Ravens. But the lead says The Orioles started the naming of groups after birds.--Artaxerxes (talk) 12:44, 6 September 2021 (UTC)[reply]

> They differed from groups like the Mills Brothers and the Delta Rhythm Boys in that they made vocal music with limited orchestration and accompanied only with the guitar of Tommy Gaither and the bass Johnny Reed.

The Mills Brothers were famous for doing "orchestral" arrangements with just vocals and guitar - the Delta Rhythm Boys imitated them.

I'm not sure what point is trying to be made in the above sentence — Preceding unsigned comment added by 67.180.148.17 (talk) 02:11, 8 December 2021 (UTC)[reply]
