The next in Paul Simpson Philadelphia Re-edit Sessions is
Keith Barrow. It follows his Roy Ayers Mixes earlier this month.
All tracks are from taken from Keith Barrow's 1977 self-titled album on
Columbia produced by the recently departed Bobby Eli with Larry
Washington on percussion/congas and Ron Kersey on keys.
Tracks 3, 4 & 5 were written by Bobby Eli, (3 & 5 with Len Barry
and 1 with Bruce Fisher).
Track List
01 - A world of lonely people (Paul Simpson Re-edit) 8:45
02 - You don't know how hard it is ( Paul Simpson Re-edit) 6:54
03 - We've got a right to be wrong (Paul Simpson Re-edit) 3:27
04 - Mr. Magic man (Paul Simpson Re-edit) 4:27
05 - I put a twinkle in your eye (Paul Simpson Re-edit) 6:21
Only two of the tracks were released on 45, "Mr. Magic Man" (a #16 R&B hit for Wilson Pickett in 1973) c/w "We've Got A Right To Be Wrong", which preceded his big two-stepper "You Know You Wanna Be Loved" from his next album "Physical Attraction" in 1978.
We did a Keith Barrow Profile last Sep for what would have been his 68th
birthday. He sadly died at a very young age of 29 in 1983 from
complication from AIDS. Four of the five tracks above were included in a
tribute playlist. He recorded four albums and only around eight singles before his death.

Good singer especially his productions for Columbia.
ReplyDeleteToo bad his fantastic "You Know You Want to Be Loved" is missing.
