The Five Stairsteps released their first single in the Spring of 1966. This is their 3rd single also released in 1966 titled "Come Back."

It's one of my favorites by them.

I guess no one is a Five Stairsteps fan?

Bump - I gotta check that tomorrow...

The only Five Stairsteps track I currently have is "O-o-h Child".

But the song is great. I need to find it.

Thanks.

In 1976, they released an album titles 2nd Ressurection with lots of help from the late billy Preston. It was totaly different from their early material with Curtis Mayfield. Damn near every track on that LP is great. My two favorites have to be Pasado and Time.

This info is very much appreciated and is currently being worn out.

Curtis Mayfield is tremendous, one of the best musical artists of the 20th century. And I have 2 discs worth of music from the Impressions.

But I've never tracked it backwards to what the Stairsteps had to offer. And they apparently have quite a lot. They were apparently the Jackson 5, long before the Jackson 5.

It's time to do some digging. Currently their only non-LP type release seems to be a greatest hit anthology.

Chicago soul of the 60s at its finest. "The First Family of Soul".

ya'll keep forgetting "Danger, she's a stranger and the girl i love"
