Prince Phillip Mitchell

Isn't it great when you hear a track that you've never heard before and think "How good is that".

Listening to Andy Peebles on Smooth FM on Saturday night he played "One on one" by PPM and I genuinely thought that it was a superb track, which I had never heard before.

Where does it come from and did it ever get any action on (any part of) the scene?

He also played a track by Donny Hathaway called "I know it's you" which was also excellent and which comes from a Leon Ware album, which appears to be some form of collabaration with other artists. Anybody know this as well?

It's on Phillip Mitchell's great "Make It Good" album on Atlantic and also as a 45 (the other side is "Only Smoke Remains").

Has been played on and off since the 80s, both on the Northern and Modern branches of the scene.

As Gareth says it's been played out....

I seem to recall PPM also doing it "live" when he appeared at Fleetwood weekender....

A Prince Phillip track I'm very fond of is "you're all I've got in the world" on Atlantic.

a Leon Ware album, which appears to be some form of collabaration with other artists. Anybody know this as well?

It´s from a comp put out by Expansion earlier this year, it is entitled Leon Ware and Friends and consists of previously released tracks from the 70´s and 80´s, recordings that Leon Ware has penned or produced for other artists. One of the people behind this new comp is my mate Paul Clifford. Titles include "Everywhere Inside Me" by Norman Connors, "I Don't Know" by Syreeta, "You Do The Right Things" by Al Wilson, "Point Of View" by Rockie Robbins, "No Tricks" by Chuck Jackson, "I Can't Keep Holding Back" by Shadow, "Trust Your Heart (ext 12" mix)" by Bobby Womack, "Just Don't Make It Hurt" by Krystol, "I Came To Love You" by Booker T, "I Can Dream" by Themal Jones, "You Make Me Wanna Love Again" by Vesta Williams, "I Know It's You" by Donny Hathaway, "Can You Feel What I'm Saying" by Minnie Riperton, "Looking Up To You" by Michael Wycoff, "Thank You Early Bird" by Jerry Butler, and the tracks "What's Your World" and "Girl Girl Girl" by Leon Ware himself.

Great tune the PPM - had one in my box for a few years - sold it recently having a clear out. Available on the album and 45, and should be easy to get hold of (forget the book price - s/b no more than 20 bucks, album a bit harder)

Donny's "I Know it's You" comes from his "Extensions Of A Man" LP which also includes "Love Love Love" and the awesome "Someday We'll All Be Free".

Just remembered Leon Ware sang "I Know It's You" at Southport '91.
