i love Dear Mother... the A side... her writing a letter to her mother. LOVE it! put that on here i f u can anyone. i remember that song from my mother playing it to death when i was a lil boy , im 41 now... butr i remember it .
i remember me and my sister sylvia use to be in her basement singing this song with our other cousins as backup boy this was the real music love this song and still know it word for word
My first 45 was played so much that by the late 70s it had no grooves left. Al of those nickels being put on the tone arm. Fortunately, I later got 2 copies just in case, but I don't have my turntable hooked up anymore. Hopefully the instrumental is here on youtube
This is the song that made Long Island proud! Magic Touch featured Pat Carty as lead vocalist [On the live version, Diane Tyler leads], Marsha Bivens and LaRonda Williams, and recorded "Step Into My World" on the Black Falcon label in April 1971, They later released "A Woman Will Do Wrong" backed by its sequel "Dear Mother." Pat is still singing, as of July 2011, though mostly gospel.
@LIsMRMOTOWN According to the liner notes which were written by the producer Bill Seabrook, the lineup who recorded this song were Pat Carny on lead & Ruthie, Lorraine & Geraldine Fitzgerald. Geraldine is the beautiful voice who opens this song, as well as all of those soaring obligato parts.
This song was worn out by me. God did these lyrics move me. I could reach each note when it came out and it stayed in my mind all of these years. Sort of just after the whole 50's and 60's music which I loved soooo much.
yes i was the backup one of them hey sandra girl whats up wilson to hamilton jr high dc whtas up awhere is paula the cute little light skinned one YEA but oh well her interest i was his interest see why groups break up just kiddin ohh where u at paula u wer so sweet and naive but had that voice did we do it or what i pray alls well in yo camp
I remember the day my cousin invited us over to listen to this song and i know i was very impressed with the song and my cousin back then and still am today. God Bless you Patricia! She"s the one singing the lead !
@VintageSoulMusic That's my hometown music station, i live in fl now, and i enjoy the old classic music the sounds of today is ok but nothing like this
i dont hate never but who said they won this in a ndighborhood talent show i got to verify but i did this at a local jr high school in 1971 and we were the bomb
beautiful song, as a teenager i remember paying hooky one afternoon and all the girls were all singing with our fake mikes to the boys. yep we played hooky as a group, didn't do the one on one hooky thing we were singing as if we really knew what love wuz, if only we could have known what joy and heartbreak love would come later
@LadyFreeBird60 Your not old,baby,you just lived carefree... ;) Your just saying that because those were happier times,so simple,so fun,and nobody was criticizing...damn,i sound old too ! LOL "Love to you".
I have been looking for this for years...THANK YOU!! Nobody knew what I was speaking about about when I mentioned this song! I am so glad you posted this...I'm so excited..THIS IS SOME GOOD STUFF!!!
Yep. you're right! they surely don't make 'em like that anymore, with the exception of Alicia, Erykha, Fergie, india.A, and that very troubled female lead, formerly of the Fugees. By the way, JonDom63, if you're not too busy, could you post Part 2 of the Magic Touche's "Step Into My World (Instrumental)"? Their classic gem just wouldn't be complete without it
You're so right - the "B" side (Part 2 - Instrumental) would make it perfect. Believe me, I've been searching long & hard for that 45 (Black Falcon Records - ah yes, I remember it well), but, so far, to no avail. Once I do find it, however, I'll have it posted with a quickness... trust and believe!
I wasn't even thinking about this song! My mother mention it to me. So here it is! Wow I forgot how much I liked it! Thank u for posting.
