Terry Tate Babies Having Babies [Single] [Single]

In the annals of soul music history songwriter/producer/entrepreneur/publisher/label owner George Kerr will always be considered an instrumental figure in the music's development. After a stint as a replacement for Little Anthony with The Imperials, Kerr became a member of The Serenaders, a New York based group. After an audition with Berry Gordy, he relocated for a brief time to Detroit where he honed his skills as a songwriter and producer. Pairing a singer with a song had always been one of George's great talents. A case in point would be Linda Jones and the song “Hypnotized” that became a huge hit in the mid-1960's – or being the first producer to record a soul group (The Escorts) behind bars (all the members were in prison). Fearless and adventurous, Kerr has remained a vital figure in soul music, particularly in New Jersey (his home turf) with successes in every decade since he started out. In the mid 1990's, George went into the studio to record a solo album which he finished but didn't have the time to release due to his involvement in so many other projects that demanded his attention. The album contained a handful of Kerr originals mixed with some well chosen covers including Barry White's “I'm Gonna Love You Just a Little More Baby” and Gladys Knight's “Best Thing That Ever Happened To Me.” Destined to become another soul music classic, George's “Hombre” is finally available for fans of classic soul music to discover for the first time. All selections newly remastered.
