#TBT - Today we Pay homage to the undisputed soul crooner, Mr Barry White

During the peak of his career, Barry White earned gold and platinum discs for his worldwide record sales in excess of 100 million, Lisa often publicly supported his work and in 1992 whilst on a promotional tour of the U.S, Lisa and Barry re-recorded a version of her biggest hit, "All Around The World" for a small documentary piece for the UK TV show Rapido. This version was included on her single, "Time to Make You Mine" in March 1992. All royalties from this recording were donated to the charity Trading Places.  Later that same year in November it was also included on Barry's album, 'Just for You'.

Barry White (here with Lisa) was born September 12th 1944 and died July 4th 2003

In 1999 Lisa teamed up with Barry once again to record "The Longer We Make Love". This track featured on his album, Staying Power and was later released as a single in selected European countries on July 19th 1999. It was also issued as a promotional single in the U.S, however the song failed to make any impact on the charts.

In May 2003, Barry suffered a stroke while waiting for a kidney transplant, which he needed due to complications from years of chronic high blood pressure. Sadly he passed away on 4th July 2003 in Los Angeles.

Below is our featured clip of Lisa and Barry's initial meeting in L.A back in 1992 and their memorable duet together performing 'All Around The World'.
