I Believe in Miracles
Jackson Sisters · 1973Recording
The Jackson Sisters recorded the track in 1973 for Prophesy Records. It was produced by Bobby Taylor, Don Altfeld, Peter Moore, and Ronnie Walker, with Gene Page credited as arranger. Issued as a 1973 Prophesy single, it became a rare-groove favorite and later re-emerged as a UK hit in 1987. The song’s enduring profile came from its warm soul production and its rediscovery by dance and collector scenes. The track became a widely sampled and covered soul staple, with dozens of later records drawing from it and multiple cover versions following. Its continued visibility was reinforced by recurring reissues and its long life in club, hip-hop, and rare-groove culture.
