They were actually the first family of soul! My friends Crystal W. Ernestine W. & Ghita W. (No relation to each other) introduced the 5 Stairsteps and Cubie to me they allowed me to hangout with them when they did the NY Apollo & Sugar Shack in Boston. Crystal W. Was The Stairteps Fan Club President. I was a member and Crystal W. made sure we all got to meet and actually hang out with them. That motivated me to start The Jackson 5 Fan Club and make sure the members got to meet the Jackson 5 and talk to them on the phone. Those were fun days! Rest In Peace Cubie Burke, Clarence Burke, James Burke & Clarence Burke Sr. Thank you for the many memories. Shout out to Keni Burke & Alohe Burke.
I love this version of”Somebody’s Watching You”,....Thank You Clarence R.I.P.🌹
I love The Five Stairsteps - RIP Clarence - your voice - you MUST be singing with the angels!!
Yes. So smooth, yet funky. His voice 8s beyond my words to describe 🆒💚☮️💚💚
Best remake of Somebody Watching You i ever heard! The 5 Stairsteps should do a reunion concert!
Yes indeed . Highly underrated artist . Nothing they could not do . The killed in the studio , and killed it on stage .
Listening in 2024!
Out of Sight,this cat is it. I loved the Five Stairsteps,I remember them coming to Cleveland Ohio at the Music Box. I still remember them and I still listen to their music. God Bless your Dad he knew he had some diamonds.
Clarence Blake letting you know he still had the skills to pay the bills a great performance👏👏👏👏
Powerful voice and what a beautiful song
Missing you💔😥💔 and your music and legacy will forever live on
Nice. I love this cover. R.I.P Mr. Burke. You are missed.
Awesome Clarence Burke my friend and you too Carl (bassist)...respect!!
I always loved this song and played it oftern. Those were the days before we could chase lyrics down easily. Thus, I didn't catch all of the words. The sentiments expressed by Sly and Li'l Sister are truly illuminating. Thanks Clarence; great performance !
The band backing Clarence is great!!! Beautiful rendition!!!
Love this version
Yes we'll miss you Clarence. Rest in peace and thanks man!
Great version. Way to go. Nice groove!!!
:'(
Is it brighter ?
Thank You Clarence, and Rest in Peace.
:'( 😭
REST IN PEACE CLARENCE!
I like this even better than the already good originals by Sly and Little Sister.
RIP Clarence you will be missed
I had just been listening to some old Stairsteps tunes and stumble across this and it's a real joy. A great version and i love Clarence's voice and delivery, a real performer. Thank you so much for posting.

The original had this gruesome feel ,you started not trusting no one especially in workplace.
Clarence Jr. is the man. He has the best voice. I like him better then Keni's voice.
Keni has an amazing voice...And no one can touch him on bass... Clarence Jr,Was a truly gifted man...But Keni is my fave!
❤️🎶💯
three piece slim jim movin on in he's a sheet freak. one of my favorite lyrics. didnot know who you were and alarmed to hear you are no longer with us.I guess thats why so many artist back in the day pushed to get their name as part of the groups name. loved that
"All nite thang".
Travis Peck peace and blessings
I hope so
