LEO SAYER - Silverbird LP 73 w Just A Boy LP 74 w Another Year LP 75 w Endless Flight LP 76 w Thunder In My Heart LP 77 w st LP 78 w Here LP 79 w Living In A Fantasy LP 80 w World Radio LP 82


 REPOST Request:  What I wrote before:  He wrote Roger Daltrey a hit tune for his first solo album then recorded his first album in some of his studios as well as Apple Studios of the Beatles.  You may recognize some hits like 'Long Tall Glasses' from the 1974 album with the memorable line, "You know I can't dance, you know I can't dance" or more obvious the hits on the 1976 breakout album like "You make me feel like dancing" or 'When I needed you".

LOVE LOVE LOVE me some Leo! My favorite song of his has always been one of the lesser-known singles, "Raining in My Heart." But honestly, I pretty much like everything he ever did. The guy is just a great singer/sonwriter.

Those first three or four albums are among the best of the 70s singer/songwriter stuff, especially the first two with David Courtney writing the music. They wrote almost all of that first Daltrey album, and it was, by far, the best solo album Roger recorded.

Can you check this out! You might find it interesting and I want to hear your thoughts on it, "You Make Me Feel Like Dancing" Ray Parker Jr. here claims he wrote the song and got ripped off by the producer and it looks like he has evidence that he indeed wrote the song, but Leo tells a totally different on how the song came to be in this other interview.

ClassicMusic20,
Thanks for the info, I listened to both and believe Ray wrote the lyrics as Leo doesn't really say who did. He did say it was Ray's riff that is uncontested and with that strong a riff where the lyrics fit right in, I would give it to Ray...Jack and Jill is also has such great lyrics and song structure integrated like that. Ray was quite gifted.

No Problem! And Ray Is Indeed A Talented Guy. A lot of people may not know is that he started out studio guitarist and was just 16 years old when he played on a bunch of these records, that was him on guitar on "Want Ads" by Honey Cone, That was him on guitar on "Band of Gold" by Freda Payne, He's played with Stevie Wonder, Boz Scaggs, Herbie Hancock, Rufus and Chaka Khan, Aretha Franklin, Carpenters, Gladys Knight & the Pips, Diana Ross etc. So yeah, talented guy.
