Guest WPaulVanDyk Posted October 17, 2006 Share Posted October 17, 2006 wasn't this the same track Darrell Banks recorded or someone i sure i heard it Friday when i was out Link to comment Social source share More sharing options...
Sean Hampsey Posted October 17, 2006 Share Posted October 17, 2006 wasn't this the same track Darrell Banks recorded or someone i sure i heard it Friday when i was out Close Paul. The track was recorded by Major Lance and the Impressions (being a Curtis Mayfield composition) both real nice Chicago Soul cuts but the Stairsteps version, having been recorded much later is a much smoother 'Crossover' track which, as Steve said above, I've been playing out since the early 80's (Clifton Hall, Cleethorpes, Bradford etc.). More recently, I've included it in my sets at Soul Essence once or twice over the years and it always goes down well, but until this thread I've never seen it get a mention. For me its one of the finest Soulful Dance tracks ever! Simply Gorgeous! And thanks for the name check Steve. As you know, I've been plugging this baby for decades... and I'm pretty sure you'll be playing it too! Now we only need another 2 or 3 'Soul DJ's' to pick up on it and we could have a Monster on our hands! Sean Link to comment Social source share More sharing options...

STILL DOES'NT HELP ME GETTING HOLD OF A COPY THOUGH CHEERS . NEV Sorry Nev, Sold my spare UK Buddah copy to Steve Mannion. But this should help... Its also on the "Loves Happening" US Curtom LP (CRS 8002) from 1969. I've got one of those too, but the cover is very different to the UK copy so I'm hanging onto it. The LP also features the immaculate "Baby, Make Me Feel So Good". Should be easier to track down than a clean UK copy. Sean Link to comment Social source share More sharing options...
Sean Hampsey Posted October 17, 2006 Share Posted October 17, 2006 Another thought! Any fans of Jesse James "Are You Gonna Leave Me" will love this track as its a dead ringer in so many ways! Now if it was a scarce 45 on a hideously obscure label ... what price the 5 Stairsteps? Trust me. This is well worth looking out for. Sean Link to comment Social source share More sharing options...

Blake H Posted October 18, 2006 Share Posted October 18, 2006 I bought The 5 Stairsteps Greatest Hits cd (Sequel 696) just to get this track on the strength of Sean's plays at Yarmouth, many other great tracks by the way. This should keep you going until the LP arrives. BH Link to comment Social source share More sharing options...

Guest Fatius Bumius Posted October 24, 2006 Share Posted October 24, 2006 How about this version pulled out of my box. A 60's Pop beat to it but still quite a good version IMO.
