Counter-Measures: What's Your Name?

Leon Ware

While I love Alicia Keys's "You Don't Know My Name" and it's nearly perfect companion video, I always think of this Leon Ware track as the appropriate response to that record with it's chorus, "What's your name? Does it really matter? Would your name make me love you more than I do?"

So, for the crush-heavy Melissa, you've been countered.

During the late '70s, [Leon Ware] placed songs on albums by Minnie Riperton, Marlena Shaw, Melissa Manchester, and Bobby Womack. He issued his third solo album, Inside Is Love, on Fabulous Records in 1979. It reached the R&B charts in December, along with its single, "What's Your Name," establishing him as a recording artist for the first time.

This is only because Melissa's Petestrumental got me thinking about my favorite Pete & C.L. joints. I love this little heard head-nodder off a fat beats compilation.

Not really a challenge. Just a listen.

More of my favorite Pete Rock & C.L. Smooth gems to show up in my audio library shortly.

Melissa, who I should be kind to because she hooked me up with that Bobbito/Spinna Stevie Wonder madness today, dropped a Madvillain instrumental. That's nice, but...
