Description
The Collins & Collins version of "Top Of The Stairs"is a timeless modern soul classic. The song is composed by Ashford & Simpson, who originally recorded it, but even they switched to the arrangement on the Collins & Collins version when performing it live. The connection Expansion Records have with the song dates from its first UK/CD release on "
Soul Chasers" in 1993, then the "Ashford & Simpson Songbook"in 2007 and now officially reissued on 7", and the full length version too. It's coupled with the exceptionally rare/in demand/expensive version of Gamble & Huff's"You Know How To Make Me Feel So Good", first recorded by Harold Melvin & The Blue Notes in 1975. Collins & Collins recorded one LP for A&M in 1980, both key tracks featured back to back on this 7". Songs are produced by John Davis and recorded at Sigma Sound studios in Philadelphia.
