- It's been a while!
Up to now I have only uploaded tracks that didn't appear anywhere else on YT.
For No. 16 of my favourite all time Soul records I've chosen a track that is on here a lot - but I have always thought it needed to be longer! - couldn't quite get it up to 10 mins but not that far short!
Enjoy! - Hudba
MY COUSIN IS A BAD MAN THIS IS A CLASSIC AND WILL LIVE ON FOREVER AND BEEN SAMPLED BY MANY ARTISTS.
INDEED...THIS IS A CHI-CITY STEPPERS CLASSIC! 💚💚💚
Your cousin is a Legend this song definitely inspires me in a whole lot of ways may he rest in power 🤴👑
Wow Keni was your Cousin?!! You must be really proud of him!! Its great to be related to a legend!!
Sorry - Keni is your cousin!!
MJB was one sampler for sure
Cruising in a 1980 cutlass supreme.white leather seats.yeah, it happened......
It's 2023 and I'm still jamming to this song! Love Keni Burke's music!!
Wonderful version, this song accompanied me for decades on the roads at night. Today, at 63 years old, I still feel my soul touched

The very definition of a handsome man with a handsome voice.

A Super-Duper Classic.
just repeat,repeat,repeat,repeat......rising,rising,rising..... believing !
Have we somehow evolved as a race that we don't, or can't write music like this anymore?
No, Our Music 🎶🎼🎶 Had Meaning, Experience, Love and Pain! Now this Shit, Excuse My Language Has No Depth, Broken English, No Heart or Education, Just Lost Uninspired and They ain't Looking for Love, Marriage is a Chess Game! Where is the Pain in a Songs? Voice Makeovers is Not Singing! I'm Just Done with this New Crap! Y'all Can Have It! I'll Stay Right Here With My KIND❤
The power that be, don't want you to listen to this. They want you listening to kill someone or call a woman a dog. Back in the day, you bought an album, and you could listen to both sides and find hits, not this one and done bull.
Perhaps ?.......................what song have you written ?
New York City Classy. Period.
Has to be fifty cent bought me here in 2021
This is why we all love these old songs, as there is nothing around these days to compare with them. We love the memories associated with these old classics. The days of my youth really were better, I just didn’t know it then.
🙌 Nailed it, Ms. Wanda ❤️

@@mygodisawesome2012 ain't
2024 We gotta Keep Rising To Tha TOP
😊 oh reminds me lovely times.
Listen to Keni when he shared lead on the song "Ooh Chile" as a teenager with his family group, The Five Stairsteps. A little bit of music trivia. He and his brothers also renamed themselves the Invisible Man's Band, and released their 1980 hit "All Night Thing". Check it out! Ciao!!!
Yes baby yes...get it. Dancing to the best music. To my love I will always love you... This song is the bomb.
they just don't make songs like this anymore-so beautiful, I could listen to this all day long-deelish
✊🏾 ALL DAY!😉
The 3 stair steps were fantastic. Clarence Burke, Sr (deceased) was a great and gifted writer, composer, singer and played a guitar "like ringing a bell." RIP
5 stair steps.
DaddySpyce I grew up with the Five Stairsteps. We all went to high school together.

those 3 dollar tapes are a throwback
Magnifique, Merveilleux, Merci
This tune is a funk dancers delight at night, when all is right with the world!!!!
Totally classic song.....loving this real soulful instrumental..........

The Mary Jane Girls ”All night long” beat was sampled off this song and writing by Rick James too 🎉😮❤😊
I REMEMBER THIS SONG BACK IN THE DAY
Sending love to all the lovers out there on Valentine's Day!! Peace, love & soul, My People, & stay up!
Who's here in 2020??
Paradise is very nice...
I Just realized this is Keni Burke from the five stairsteps (Ooh Child).
You know this is poppin`!
I feel sorry for the youth of today bekawz, they have NO GOOD MUSIC TO LISTEN OR DANCE TO!
Where are the 2day's R & B Singers, Groups & Bands?
How is it that what passess for hip hop now had come so far and away from what came B4 it?
Hip Hop of former times was conscious, fun & also danceable, no hip hop music from these new jack groups like that exist 2day.
#WENEEDAREALGOODMUSICREVIVAL!
