Dee Walker - Dial 'L' For Love 12'' (1985)

Dee Walker, the recording artist, was the creation of Dance Network label head Paul Bultitute -- his idea was to compliment the early-80s wave of mod-revivalists by adding a sixties-styled "girl" singer in the image of Cilla Black or Sandy Shaw. In 1984, Baultitude signed the 22 year-old and enlisted Paul Bevoir of the Jet Set to write the appropriate songs. One album was released, 1985's Dial L for Love, which was well received by the mod underground and the British press but Walker retired from the music business after she married the following year. ~ Chris Woodstra, Rovi

My note: In 1984 was released the single "Jump Back!/Every Little Moment", both songs by Paul Bevoir. The mini-album, Dial'L' For Love, was released a year later, featuring three songs by Bevoir and three by Ed Ball. Tangerine Records edited the CD compilation "Jump Back", including the single Jump Back, this Dial L For Love and two more songs: 'Hey Mr Love' (Appears in the "Come On Peel The Noise" comp) and 'Swinging On A Star'.

Puede que Dee Walker fuese un invento de Paul Bultitute para su sello Dance Network, pretendiendo dar al revival la imagen de una cantante estilo 60's como Shandie Shaw o Cilla Black, pero sirvió para dejarnos unas pocas canciones que yo siempre recuerdo y escucho con cariño, el single "Jump Back!/Every Little Moment" en 1984 con temas de Paul Bevoir , este 12" con temas de Bevoir y de Ed Ball más dos temas que aparecieron en el recopilatorio de Tangerine Records: Jump Back de 1993 (Swinging On A Star y Hey Mr Love, este tema también salió en el recopilarotio "Come On Peel The Noise" de Tangerine).
