Rowen,
I’v always liked this song, but I had no memory of The Five Stairsteps who had a hit with this song. I looked them up.
“The Five Stairsteps, known as “The First Family of Soul” and later “The Invisible Man’s Band”, was an American Chicago soul group made up of five of Betty and Clarence Burke Sr.’s six children: Alohe Jean, Clarence Jr., James, Dennis, and Kenneth “Keni”, and briefly, Cubie. They are best known for the 1970 song “O-o-h Child”, listed at#402 on Rolling Stone’s 500 Greatest Songs of All Time.”

They look nervous lip synching to the studio recording. (Who could blame them? I’d be a wreck.)
