Description by OLDIES.com:

Baltimore group Jimmy Briscoe & The Little Beavers produced some great early '70s R&B/Pop. Lead singer Jimmy Briscoe had a range of nearly four octaves and is remembered as one of the best tenor ballad R&B vocalists of all time. With this collection the group takes their rightful place among the R&B/Pop singing greats.

Product Description:

Includes liner notes by Paul Kyser.

Liner Note Author: Paul L. Kyser.

The only missing element in this CD discography of Jimmy Briscoe & the Little Beavers' career is the Atlantic Records single "Why Do Fools Fall in Love" b/w "Sugar Brown" (9/1971) cut prior to these 19 tracks on J City, Pi Kappa, Wanderick, and Salsoul Records. The Jersey group led by Jimmy Briscoe (lead, first tenor, second tenor) also featured Stanford Stansberry's hard-edged second tenor/baritone at times. They cut good records, but nothing fantastic, and rarely got played outside the New Jersey/New York area. Furthermore, the name denotes a kiddie group and didn't help matters, which is a shame because they recorded some good material that merited attention. Some of their better moments include "Forever," a consummate wedding song; the contagious "Rockin' and Dancing"; "Together We'll Find the Way"; the romantic "My Ebony Princess"; and "My Fallen Angel," a love-happy, up-tempo song with energetic vocals. ~ Andrew Hamilton
