- The Step Brothers appear on Saturday Night Revue
Performers: The Step Brothers: Al Williams, Maceo Anderson, Flash McDonald, and Prince Spencer.
Premier date: June 7, 1952
From the Chicago Defender: "The Four Step Brothers, Negro Dance Group, were among the guest artists welcomed to NBC-TV's Comedy Hour last week by genial comic Ben Blue. The brothers executed intricate hot dance routines without the benefit of music. Strict rhythm was kept by clapping hands and provided the only accompaniment the dancers needed to put on top notch performance."
With: Ben Blue, Ann Sheridan, Peggy Lee, and the Whippoorwills. - Source
