Description
This is a previously unheard, Kent Records exclusive release from the great singer/songwriter Valerie Simpson. 'Look Away' by the Shirelles on Scepter was a big 100 Club play in the 80s. Now we have found the original version by the song's writer - complete with a sensitive girl backing group, no doubt featuring some of those legendary NYC studio vocalists. The flip is possibly even more relevant. There has never been a known US production of 'It's Just Love' which is adored by collectors and dancers through the UK's John Andrews' super-rare and expensive 1966 Parlophone release. To have a female version by the song's co-writer is exciting and advance DJ plays of this have already built big demand.
