August 21, 200717 yr OK I have got it, A side is called "Joy" (Lamont Dozier composition) and it's a disco-type thing. The other side is a Bobby Womack song, "Trust Me", a ballad. Produced by Martin Rushent who did The Buzzcocks stuff! Sample enclosed (just 30 seconds) walker.mp3 Edited August 21, 200717 yr by Pete S

Produced by Martin Rushent who did The Buzzcocks stuff! Sample enclosed (just 30 seconds) walker.mp3 I used to see Larrington Walker a lot in those 1980 Black Theatre Co-Coperative plays, he was a pretty decent actor. He was also in that classic episode of 'Minder' where Arthur Daley's on jury service ("'im lyin' t'roo 'im teet'....but it cool still..."). Dunno what's happened to him these days. The Dozier original is on his 'Right There' album and it's more or less the same, only sung better....
August 21, 200717 yr So is this known? Played? Worth anything? This is where I should pay more attention, I have had literally hundreds of 70's records like this, all UK demos, and I just gave them away, I once gave a box of about 400 to the cats protection league in Hastings, my mate used to get them sent to him by the record companies and give them to me, the only one I kept was the Ramones Blitzkreig Bop picture sleeve!
August 21, 200717 yr Author Cheers Guys...thanks for the info. You`re right Pete that record is terrible! Chris
