Lorraine Ellison - Stay with me Baby - that song always gives me goose bumps.

 

Yep, Soul Boy Heaven, that one! It takes me back to rainy Saturday afternoons in London's "Soul City" record shop, many more years ago than I care to remember :)

 

George David Weiss, who wrote the song, died about a month ago - I was fascinated to learn that among his other songs were The Lion Sleeps Tonight, Can't Help Falling In Love and, most surprisingly of all, Louis Armstrong's What A Wonderful World. Who'd have thought that the same person who came up with such hammy schmaltz as that one could also produce one of the great soul burners?
