Givin' it up one time for The Five Stairsteps' first album
Put on Ooh Child -- which of course is a great song -- and focus on the drumming. It is unbelievable.
Bernard Purdie FTW!
Now I gotta go find this record! Didn’t know the backstory or the Curtis Mayfield connection. A funky “thank you” for alerting me!
Right on!
Great article, thanks! Love the Five Stairsteps and that 1960's golden era of Chicago Soul. The immensity of Curtis Mayfield's contributions to that scene is stunning. He wrote classic after classic for so many artists in that time and place.
Right on! Thanks for reading!
