WHAT JAMES HAMILTON HAD TO SAY ABOUT THIS RELEASE:
JEFFREY OSBORNE. ‘Stay With Me Tonight’ (A&M AMX 188)
Tedious 120bpm clopper re-released to tie in with his London shows, on 3-track 12in with a Froggy-mixed flip containing a sadly de-gutted/censored UK radio version of the (in its US remix) usually mind-destroying 112bpm ‘Plane Love’, and a neatly spliced series of excerpts from ‘New Love’ (99)/’I Really Don’t Need No Light’ (107)/’Don’t You Get So Mad’ (116-114)/’Stay With Me Tonight’ (119bpm). Now, had A&M allowed a properly mixed running synch between just ‘Light’ and ‘Plane Love’ (both Hawk Wolinski-penned), that really would have been something!
