Jimmy McCloud - When there's love in your life 1982



Jimmy McCloud was an unknown singer. He was born in 1951. He had begun recordings in 1976. He released a single entitled “I blew it / Don’t make the angels cry” on Tribe Records. It is very expensive vinyl 45 and his style is northern soul. I haven’t seen another record by McCloud until 1982. He recorded on Corn Records and released a single entitled “When love hits ya / When there’s love in your life”. Produced by R.Martin and Jimmy McCloud. I chose the ballad "When there's love in your life". Composed by R.Martin and R.Eaton.


I have the pleasure of  having in my hands two unreleased songs that he recorded in the mid 80s.

It's 6:56am I rolled over in my bed and I thought about my good friend. Jimmy McCloud I wondered if he was on the Internet. So I put his name in and he popped up.
I can't wait to call him this morning on the phone and tell him that he hasn't been forgotten. That he still has fan's out there.
That somebody still remember him.
Jimmy McCloud is alive well and kicking' He still live's in Detroit.

It was recorded and released probably in 1980 on TAP Records. Arranged by Nathaniel Yisrael , David Parker and Arnie Love. Produced by Nathaniel Yisrael. From this ultra rare 12", I have chosen a ballad " Me, Myself & I ". Note: The above posted track is not played in full
