**VERY ,VERY RARE FUNK/SOUL GEM**
"OHH LADYS AND GENTELMAN
WHAT A GEM"
JERRY "SWAMP DOGG" WILLIAMS Jr.
Jerry is almost a living legend in the soul and R & B field, and has been working actively in the business for over fifteen years. As a journalist recently pointed out, all of Jerry's work seems to create that indefinable charismatic quality, as a result of his production techniques.
Jerry's production work with other artists has resulted in several northern soul classics in the U.K., but Jerry, as a solo performer, has succeeded in building a reputation over the years in the soul and R & B field. His catalogue of solo albums must now be close to ten. In the production field, his reputation reached a peak when he worked on Doris Duke's soul classic "I'm The Other Woman To The Other Woman". Jerry has also worked with artists such as: Millie Jackson; Arthur Conley; Z.Z. Hill; Little Beaver; Patti LaBelle, and Charles Whitehead, but one must never forget Jerry's own unmistakable vocal abilities, which have made his many solo albums so powerful.
Pinnacle bring the Jerry Williams story up to date by producing for the U.K. market this brand new album which comprises five tracks by Jerry on one side and five by his soulful daughter, Michelle Williams, on the other. Jerry produced the whole album.
On Jerry's side, his performances include variations of the old Sam & Dave classic, "Hold On I'm Coming", and the well known Soul Brothers Six number, "Some Kind Of Wonderful".
Michelle performs well on side two, providing a selection of up-tempo and funky soul numbers that are tailor made for the dance floor. Four of the songs were penned by Jerry, but the fifth is a variation of Bettye Swann's soul classic, "Make Me Yours".
