July 19, 201311 yr palm of your hand was popular in the late 80s, but not since, as it can become a bit boring the more you hear it his version of love was not as good as the monorays i dont think there is anything else by him that i can remember sorry Edited July 19, 201311 yr by gaz thomas

July 19, 201311 yr Roburt, are we certain he was a white guy ? No, not certain. Mind you, I think his cuts were 'Chuck Jackson-ish sounding' coz Chuck's stuff was selling so well back then. Chuck J had enjoyed 3 big R&B + Pop Chart hits in 61 and "Any Day Now" was shooting up the charts when this Chuck's 1st Ember 45 was being made ready for release.

Its a lie .... plays around Cambridgeshire 15+ yrs ago .... top tune
July 19, 201311 yr Here's his "Love I’m Not Gonna Be Your Fool Anymore" which does have that 'big city soul' sound ......... The arrangement is a bit too sugary for me though & his voice (on this) displays a lack of bite .... but overall it's a decent track. Ady / Kent included his "Palm of your Hand" on their 'Birth of Soul Vol.3' CD, so not doubt the booklet notes for that contain some info on Chuck.
