CODĒ! [2022] - Footsteps In the Dark, Pts. 1 & 2 / I.L.W.Y. [Underestimated Productions]


The Isley Brothers certainly are flavour of the month with yet another cover of one of their songs and another cover of "Footsteps In The Dark" (released by Jarrod Lawson on 8 Apr and a new entry to UK Soul Chart this week) and of course with the Output/Input at #1 with their version of "Here We Go Again".  

This version's by singer/songwriter/producer CODĒ! (Cody Jefferson from Arkansas) released last Friday (15 Apr 2022). He has a background in gospel from the age of 8.

I've not come across CODĒ! before and he appears to have emerged last year with a debut single in April "U + Me" and an album "More Than I Knew" followed in June. The current single is only his fourth to date and sandwiched between the first and last are "I.L.W.Y" and a Christmas cover "Christmas Time Is Here".

"I.L.W.Y" was released on 11 Feb and is a good ballad, so I'll also post it.

A nod to Brighton Boris aka Paul Regan for unearthing this version.

Nice tribute to the Isley Brothers by a very good singer, but Ron Isley's voice is inimitable.
Good B-side too.
