The Chi-Lites featuring Marshall Thompson

It started in 1959 when Marshall Thompson formed a vocal group called the ''Hi-Lights' in his hometown of Chicago with fellow members Eugene Record, Robert Lester and Creadel 'Red' Jones. After releasing several singles on local labels, the group changed their name in 1964 to 'Marshall &The Chi-Lites'. By the time the group changed their name to The Chi-Lites in 1969 they were signed by Nat Tarnopol and Carl Davis to Brunswick Records, where they would soon become international superstars. Between 1969 and 1974, The Chi-Lites scored eleven Top Ten singles on the Billboard R&B charts, with hits like 'Have You Seen Her', 'Give It Away','(For God's Sake) Give More Power To The People', 'Are You My Woman(Tell Me So)', 'A Letter To Myself', 'The Coldest Days of My Life', 'Stoned Out Of My Mind', and 'Oh Girl'. The Chi-Lites featuring original founder Marshall Thompson will take you back down memory lane with hit after hit of that smooth R&B POP sound from Chicago.
