Chuck Holiday [196?] - Just Can't Trust Nobody [Gloria]


Written by Charles Dillard and Gabriel Garrett Jr. (a member of Twilighters, Technics and Four Voices) and released on his Gloria label, named after his wife.  Gloria released 3 45s all by Chuck Holiday.

Chuck Holiday had one further release, a duet with Timmy Shaw on Johnnie Mae Matthews' Big Hit label in 1968.

I note that all his releases have a writer credit of C. Dillard (Charles Dillard) ... I wonder if Chuck Holiday is a pseudonym for Charles Dillard?

This song (credited to Garret & Dillard) uses the same backing as The Four Voices - Your Love Is Getting Stronger (credited to Othea George & Willie Ewing) but with completely different lyrics and was released a few years later.

This track was 'discovered' by the Northern Soul scene a few years after The Four Voices was unearthed (c 1979) and was initially covered-up as James Larue & The Detroit Voices - a completely fake / made up artist which would have given it even more 'credibility' as a complete rarity!!!
