The Admirations All For You

Not too much is known about The Admirations. What is known is they were three brothers and a couple of friends from Chicago's near North Side. They were the Childs Brothers and were managed by Herbert Butler and Tommie Johnson of The Players vocal group. What else is known is that they made two great records for One-derful in 1968. Sweet Chicago Soul from a group of really talented young guys. Where are you?

With the exception of one of the brothers, David Donaldson (RIP) they are all still around and living in the Chicago area. They get together every now and then, and still sound great! Hearing them sing in person is a treat. They are no longer together as a group, but remain friends.
