I was 15 years old at the time my Father used to play the Stylistics until he wore it out. I learned how to sing with different ranges I thank Father for playing great music. It taught me a valuable lesson in life. Stylistics every song was a hit.

Back in the day, I've been so freaking fortunate to have heard the original Stylistics LIVE and direct with Mr Russell Thompkins, Jr.on the lead vocals! Simply awesome! It's sad that Russell left the band, but I know that the band did not have the same backing musicians all through their tours anyway. I would go see Russell and his "New Stylistics" before I'd go see Eban's "Stylistics." Just the way I feel about that man's voice! No one can compare!

Ebans gone now. He had enough of those 2 guys also and went on his own

Russell Thompkins Jr.-This man have one of the most beautiful and sexiest voices ever. There will never be another. Eban Brown, ( currently lead singer of the other stylistics group), can sing the phone book. Yet there is really no caparison. Each man has his own style of singing. Love both groups.
