BREAKING NEWS: Stairsteps 2nd Resurrection makes its debut on CD!!

January 7th, 2014! Bout time!

Hopefully the recent death of Clearence Burke was not the cause of the reissue.

Great News!!! and I agree, I hope his death wasn't the catalyst for this....

One of the great, underrated R&B/Funk albums of the 70's....

This makes me smile. biggrin

I've been checking around everyone seems to have it for pre-order sale. MusicStack's 1/7/2014 for 12 bucks and some change. I'm sorry they couldn't have released this album during the holidays. I hope more out of print music is coming down the pike!

I ordered from Dusty Groove. Yeah, I saw that, so I was wondering how Dusty got them in before January.

By the way, just in case it wasn't clear. They're also releasing Keni Burke "Keni Burke" album, as well as the Stairsteps "2nd Resurrection". A lable called Solaris. So, yeeeeeeeeeeeaaaaaaaaaaa, for this label. Oh, if I remember right, they're also releasing Richard "Dimples" Fields "Dimples", if that is of interest to anyone. smile

Nope (thank goodness). The album in its intirety the way it was released many years ago. I only said thank goodness, because i'm a little bored with reissues being bogged down with too many bonus tracks. smile

My radio station growing up used to always play the Pockets version-- I didn't hear the original until years later, but I love both versions!
