A1. All My Love
B1. Can't Get Over You

The world of discovering Soul music and artists can lead to sheer moments of jubilation. The thought of igniting a long lost sound, reviving the energy of a once exuberant individual .  But not every story that's told is filled with joy.  Some are peppered along the way with struggles and heartache.   Over time artists have battled with over powering label owners, record executives who just don't back what you do.  The story of Tommy Hill is one such story.  Tommy along with friend and longtime collaborator Ricky Tarbo had a deal with Motown records back in the early 1980's which turned sour very quickly.  His release "Flame"/"Super Star Of Love' was dropped pretty quickly with no promotion and record boss Sylvia Rhône calling the shots within the duo questioning skin colour within the group and even trying to get vocals wiped off the release to sabotage it. 

This said the single didn't amount to much and nothing else was recorded for Motown records.  The duo did record some 4 demo's in LA before Tommy headed to re-record them again in New York circa 1982.  

The A side has never been released until now, which is such a crying shame as the quality is so damn good.  It's an uptempo boogie cut called  "All  My Love" which we gave a sexy 45 mix so you get some slamming synth work half way in.  Tommy Hill's vocal range is nothing but astonishing.  Just check out the 2 step ballad of "Can't Get Over You", which was recorded and released back in 1980 by The James Simpson penetration Band written by Tommy Hill, who went back into the studio 2 years later to give the song much more depth not only within the production but also to his vocal range.   Tommy Hill headed back to LA after not securing a record deal and a few years later tried to get this singing career back on track.  Like many of the artists who have moved on to a higher place Tommy succumbed to his own mental health issues and took his life.  We hope this record does you proud Tommy Hill.
