 * Comment I found one news article behind a paywall, and a couple places to buy their CD, but that is pretty slim pickin's. Dennis Brown (talk) 16:05, 12 April 2011 (UTC)
 * Keep. Online sources from the '70s are not easy to find, but this band (later known as Jimmy Briscoe & the Beavers) had some notability in soul/disco circles, although they never really hit big nationally.  Their Allmusic bio is here.  Their first album was a Billboard top album pick in 1974..  "My Ebony Princess" gets a mention in a 2006 profile in The New Yorker of Ghostface Killah. --Arxiloxos (talk) 16:40, 12 April 2011 (UTC)
 * Keep Google news archive search for "Jimmy Briscoe" AND "Beavers" and six results appear.  The Baltimore Afro-American does an article on them at |And The Little Beavers .Keep Moving Up!.  Some other coverage looks valid as well.   D r e a m Focus  10:49, 17 April 2011 (UTC)
