Description
Originally from Compton, Los Angeles, the Jackson Sisters were one-hit wonders who briefly shone and made some noise in the early 1970s before quickly fading into obscurity. Their only US chart entry was ‘I Believe In Miracles,’ a funky slice of bubblegum soul with a catchy, sing-along chorus released on the Prophesy label that briefly saw them make the lower reaches of the R&B charts in September 1973.

Even though the sisters ceased performing together in 1975, their greatest tune, ‘I Believe In Miracles’ began to live a charmed life. In 1988, the song was resurrected as part of the UK ‘Rare Groove’ scene which resulted in it denting the bottom end of the UK pop charts (it peaked at No. 72). British vocal group, The Pasadenas, cut their own version of the tune in 1989, and a year later, Public Enemy sampled ‘Miracles’ for their track, ’Can’t Do Nuttin’ For Ya Man.’

Tracklist
1. Where Your Love Is Gone
2. Maybe
3. Why Do Fools Fall In Love
4. Day In The Blue
5. Rockin’ On My Porch
6. Boy You're Dynamite
7. Rock Steady
8. Miracles
9. (Why Can't We Be) More Than Just Friends
10. Shake Her Loose

I actually got a little excited thinking this was an unearthed recording from Rebbie, La Toya, and Janet.
