:''For the Australian rules footballer, see Charlie Whitehead (footballer). Charlie Whitehead (September 12, 1942 – June 26, 2015) was a soul singer from Franklin, Virginia. Whitehead moved to New York City in 1968 and was subsequently signed to Musicor's R&B subsidiary, Dynamo Records, by Charlie Foxx. At Dynamo, Whitehead was paired with Jerry Williams, Jr., and the two wrote songs (often with Gary U.S. Bonds) for artists such as Dee Dee Warwick and Doris Duke, including Warwick's 1970 hit, "She Didn’t Know (She Kept on Talking)".〔("She Didn't Know (She Kept on Talking)" songwriting credits ), BMI database.〕〔("She Didn't Know (She Kept on Talking)" (Hot 100 chart) ), ''Billboard'', June 27, 1970.〕 Releasing only one single on Dynamo, Whitehead followed Williams when he left for Canyon Records. In 1970, using the name Raw Spitt, Whitehead released a self-titled album, produced and mostly written by Williams. One song from the album, "Songs to Sing" was also released as a single on United Artists. Whitehead released some material under his own name on Williams' Stone Dogg Records and in 1973, the album ''Charlie Whitehead and the Swamp Dogg Band'' on Williams' Fungus Records. In 1975, he made the ''Billboard'' R&B chart with "Love Being Your Fool" on Island Records.〔(Charlie Whitehead biography ), Allmusic.〕 He released one more album, 1977's ''Whitehead at Yellowstone'' before dropping from view. A CD compiling ''Raw Spitt'', ''Charlie Whitehead and the Swamp Dogg Band'', and various non-album tracks—called ''Songs to Sing: The Charlie Whitehead Anthology''—was released by Ace Records in 2006. On June 26, 2015, Charlie Whitehead died. ==References== 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「Charlie Whitehead」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
