JERRY WILLIAMS JR was born in Virginia in 1942 and is best known by his alter-ego Swamp Dogg. He has enjoyed a prolific career as an artist, writer and producer scoring hits for Gene Pitney, Doris Duke, Dee Dee Warwick, Freddie North and Johnny Paycheck. He has recorded a number of collectable up tempo and deep soul sides including “She’s So Divine”, a 3-figure rarity recorded for Academy Records in 1963. But it is his self-penned “If You Ask Me” that catapulted him into the Northern Soul hall of fame and remains a much cherished and in demand dance floor filler. We also feature another favourite Calla Recording, written and produced by Williams, “Just What Do you Plan To Do About It”.
