The Walrus of Love
Oh, joy. The weekend is in sight...
It also happens to be the 70th anniversary of the birth of "The Walrus Of Love", Mr Barry White. A man legendary for his influence on fashion for the fuller figure, and on hair styles, his growly vocals on a succession of OTT "seduction Soul" songs in the 1970s were more than likely a contributory factor to the population explosion of that decade.
Who better to guide us funkily towards thoughts of party-planning? [We're already getting excited about Proms in the Park tomorrow!]
Here's Big Barry, introducing his lovely singers Love Unlimited, with their vocal version of his orchestral hit Love's Theme - Thank Disco It's Friday!
Have a funky and seductive weekend, one and all.
Barry White (born Barry Eugene Carter, 12th September 1944 - 4th July 2003)
