Alton McClain

Alton McClain and Destiny was an American disco group from Los Angeles, California. Formed in 1978, the trio was composed of McClain, D'Marie (Delores) Warren, and Robyrda Stiger. They signed to Polydor Records in the year of their formation and Frank Wilson produced their debut set. It was released as a self-titled album early in 1979 but then was repackaged under the title It Must Be Love several months later. The title track was released as a single and charted, but the second album did not sell well. The group was dropped less than a year after its release. They split in 1981.

McClain later married producer Skip Scarborough and continued working in the music industry; Alton McClain continued recording as a gospel singer, releasing albums God's Woman in 1995 and Renaissance in 2005. Robyrda Stiger and D'Marie Warren signed with Epic Records as a part of the girl group Krystol. They also sang background on Maze featuring Frankie Beverly's classic recording, "Joy and Pain." Krystol's first two albums were produced by the legendary Leon Sylvers III. Unfortunately D'Marie died in a car crash in 1985 at age 32, before their second album was released.
