A love ballad released in time for Valentine's Day from Chris Jasper's 17th
solo album. He was, of course, a member of Isley, Jasper, Isley in the 80s
who are best remembered for
'Caravan Of Love'
which reached #52 on UK pop chart in 1985. It was covered the following year
by The Housemartins who had a #1 hit with a 'blanded out', soulless,
acapella version of it. Unbelievable, but at least Jasper & the Isley's
were writers of the song, so would have received royalties for it.
The Housemartins were from Hull and included
Norman Cook
aka Fatboy Slim who sampled the NS classic instrumental by the Just Brothers
'Sliced Tomatoes'
for his first big hit
'The Rockafella Skank'
in 1998. The Housemartins later broke up and two members formed The
Beautiful South.
