Dutch singer Albert West was nicknamed The Cover King by the Dutch press, but he had quite a few hits that were originals. like Don't Say You Leave This Summer, which is on this cloudcast. Ginny Come Lately (originally by Brian Hyland) was his first solo hit single in 1973, after he had left his band The Shuffles. It was a hit single in Austria as well. In 1986, he collaborated with American singer/songwriter Albert Hammond on a successful album called Hammond & West. They first recorded Give A Little Love, which would be covered by Aswad, Ziggy Marley and Bucks Fizz. The song was composed by then relatively unknown songwriter Dianne Warren, who would later write songs for all the big stars, as you can find on Wikipedia. Albert West died as a result of a traffic accident in 2015. Don't Say You Leave This Summer (a duet with popular Dutch singer Anita Meyer) reached number 26 on the Dutch Charts in 1981.
