One of my favourites from 1982!
1982 was a good year for classic R&B jams like Love Come Down (Evelyn King), Forget Me Nots (Patrice Rushen), Murphy’s Law (Cheri) and Jump To It (Aretha).
The one-hit wonder in the US, but he did have a second Top 10 duet with Kim Wilde and a few more minor hits in the UK.
I have one other 12″ from Junior, a UK promo for “Do You Really (Want My Love)” from the soundtrack to Beverly Hills Cop. It’ll show up here on the blog sometime next year.
and next year is only a month away!
