Carl Weathers [1981] - You Ought To Be With Me [Mirage #WTG 3834]


You will know of Carl Weathers even if you are not aware of it as he played Apollo Creed in the Rocky movies as well as being an American footballer. He released a one-off single in 1981 on Mirage and what a beauty it is! He even had a hand in writing it along with D.J. (Dwight) Emile who wrote for Black Ice and Eddie Horan.

"You Ought To Be Here With Me" reached #71 on the R&B charts in autumn 1981.

If you have listened to the Cornell CC Carter interview by Gary Van Den Bussche posted recently then you will have heard this played before the interview commenced.
