Eugene Record was the main man in the hugely successful Chi-Lites. Formed in Chicago in 1960 and originally called the Hi-Lites, the group were imbued with the tradition of doo-wop and street corner harmony. Record and Robert Lester came together with Clarence Johnson in the Chanteurs, who issued a single on Renee Records in 1959.
The trio then teamed up with Marshall Thompson and Creadel 'Red' Jones, refugees from another local group, the Desideros. The resultant combination was dubbed the Hi-Lites and a series of releases followed. I'm So Jealous from late 1964 introduced the group's new name: Marshall And The Chi-Lites. The amended prefix was by way of celebrating their 'Windy City' origins.
Johnson left the group later that year and with the release of You Did That To Me, the quartet became simply the Chi-Lites. Further singles confirmed a growing reputation while their arrival at Brunswick Records in 1968 pitched them alongside the cream of Chicago's soul hierarchy. Eugene Record formed a songwriting partnership with Barbara Acklin which proved to be a formidable combination, responsible for many of the group's finest moments.
'Give It Away', released in 1969, became the Chi-Lites first US national hit, and this number introduced a string of often contrasting releases. Although equally self-assured on up-tempto songs, the group became noted for its slower, often sentimental performances. The wistful Have You Seen Her, released in 1971, reached number 3 on both sides of the Atlantic. In particular, this song highlighted Eugene Record's emotive falsetto, which became his own, instantly recognizable, trademark.
