I can remember getting ready to go to school in the mornings and the radio was always playing a hit tune by Leon Haywood. Although there was a lot of competision,his songs also made me get up and dance at the local club . I wondered,who is That? And I subsequently bought whatever single records I could find with his name involved in it. All other's had sold out completely! I've just learned of his passing since dancing to she's a bad mama mamma the other day and today. Didn't know he was...
