- Bobby McFerrin is not a vocal group (he's still awesome though)
- Based on your list of names, Acoustix should be top 5 compared to some of those others
- The Real Group should be top 5
- You've forgotten The Hi-Lo's and The Four Freshmen
- The Blenders should be higher
- Cadence is another great group you've left off
My list (closest to order I can get): The Hi-Lo's, Take 6, The King's Singers, The Real Group, The Four Freshmen, The Singers Unlimited, The Suntones, The Blenders

I agree Take 6 should be on top, and I am happy to see GLAD made the list. I would have placed The Real Group a little higher, but that is just my personal preference.
Thanks for sharing!
