The three of you have such great smiles. The 70s were full of musical diversity. My husband and I have a shoebox full of concert tix stubs. At least 1 or 2 concerts a month from the 70"s to present day. My husband passed 5 years ago so I don't go too much anymore. It was such a great time

Jamel, I love watching you and your brothers react together. I got to see TOP Live in 1972. They were playing in a coffe house/night club called Funky Quarters in San Diego. The lead singer then was an amazing man named Rick Stevens, who sadly went on to live most of his life in a penitentiary. They were magic that night, their first hit song was just getting air play. I saw them about 6 months later at the San Diego Sports Arena. TOPs alumni roster is huge. They are the very best of what they do. "Your Still a Young Man" "At the Nightclub" and "Bump City" are three favorites from early on.
