History

The Jackson Sisters were Jacqueline Jackson-Rencher, Lyn Jackson, Pat Jackson, Rae Jackson and Gennie Jackson. They sound [recording and reproduction|recorded] material for the Prophecy Records label, obtaining some modest success in the 1970s. However the group really came into their own nearly a decade later, following the emergence of the rare groove scene in the UK. Many of their songs were written by Johnny Bristol. "I Believe in Miracles", their hit song, was written and originally recorded by Mark Capanni in 1973, but his version would be released a year after the Jackson Sisters' version. Capanni also wrote A Day in The Blue. The track reached #72 in the UK [Singles Chart] in June 1987.
