It's most certainly NOT Doug Parkinson. That version was very much on mainstream radio in Australia ...we all grew up with it, so never understood the attraction in the uk.

I don't know who the audio version is, but I think it's familiar . There's a 90s 'smooth jazz' version by RUSS FREEMAN & THE RIPPINGTONS which could be it, but I think the OTIS GAYLE version might have a reggae twist. Perhaps they're worth asking about?

No defe not but a great record which I finally got today thanks to a wonderful service from Mr Smith (Pete not Denzel Washington that is), better known for the other side but I think this is a side that never really got any attention.

Cheers

Jeffrey Osbourne is the lead vocal for Russ Freeman and The Rippingtons on that track.

but it's not Jeffrey either

[Guest realsoulfan]

Thanks for all your help but i'm still no closer to finding out who he is

I'm poppping round to the culprit that sent it me later today to throttle him unless he tells me who the artist is

I've seen a version by Midwest Franchise, but can't find a clip to compare :angry:

[John Benson]

The Midwest Franchise song isn't the same one Mark, just the same title I'm afraid

Knew i had the cover of i'll be around somewhere & this is on the other side. No info on the artist though as it's on a white label test press. Guy sure can sing though whoever he is.

[Guest ruffsounds]

i think it might be by Bobby Caldwell he has done a lot of 90s stuff sounds like him too some nice modern stuff he has turned out but relatively uknown but i know he did a copy of I'll Be Around.
