Archie Brownlee with The Five Blind Boys of Mississippi

After leaving the Soul Stirrers, he recorded songs with the Brooklyn All-Stars, one in which was released as a single -- "How Long Has It Been?"

Although the song's theme is sad, it does not stop Outler from singing this song! Jimmy Outler -- Underrated Gospel Singer!
