boba Posted May 6, 2012 Posted May 6, 2012 There was also an unrelated Little Tommy in Gary / East Chicago, Indiana. He is Tommy Payton. He cut a few records in Chicago and then went to LA, it's the same guy as on Tangerine (which I'm still looking for a stock copy of...).

Prophonics 2029 Posted May 6, 2012 Author Posted May 6, 2012 Very interesting articles you have posted up for me many thanks. I was listening to Little Tommy on a CD home last night on Sounds Of Soul and thought the arrangement sounded like Sherry Taylor Rings My Bell any way this turns out to be a Tony Clark song.
