Английская Википедия:Anthony Swete
Шаблон:Infobox musical artist Anthony Swete is a singer who was primarily associated with PPX records owned by ed Chalpin. He had a multitude of singles issued on various labels, plus albums on the Clan Celentano, RCA and Zafiro labels. During his time, he had some chart hits. Two of them were top-ten hits during the late 1960s in Argentina. They were "Judy in Disguise" and "Hold Me Tight".
Background
The PPX label he was associated with had at various times signed Jimi Hendrix, Curtis Knight and Ella Moore.[1][2]
He was listed by Cash Box in the December 28, 1968 issue as one of the artists that made the Argentina Top Ten that year.[3] In the early 1970s, he was signed to the Paramount label.[4][5]
Career
1960s
Anthony Swete recorded his version of "Judy in Disguise". It was released in Argentina as "Judy Disfrazada". The B side was the Scott English and Larry Weiss composition "Doblame, Modelame" ("Bend Me, Shape Me"). The recordings were released on Groove GS-8005 in 1968.[6][7] As shown by Cash Box in the March 16 issue, Swete's version debuted at no. 10 on the Argentina's Best Sellers chart.[8] It peaked at no. 5 on April 20.[9][10] It was still in the chart at no. 17 on May 25.[11] As shown by Billboard, it was at no. 4 on the Buenos Aires Top Ten chart for the week ending April 6.[12] He had more success later the following year with "Hold Me Tight". As recorded by Cash Box, the single was at no. 5 on the week of January 25.[13] Its peak position of no. 5 was recorded by Cash Box in the March 15 issue.[14]
1970s
Swete recorded his version of "Backfield in Motion" which saw a release in the UK. It was reviewed by the Record Mirror in the magazine's February 7, 1970 issue. It did get a positive review with James Hamilton calling it a nicely dated beater with soulful Sam & Dave touches. At the time Swete's version was the only one available in the country, predating the Mel and Tim UK release.[15] Also in 1970, a single was released on the RCA Twin Hits label featuring his versions of "My Honey and Me" bw "Rainy Night in Georgia".[16]
According to Cash Box in the magazine's May 9, 1970 issue, Swete along with Curtis Knight and Ella Moore were to have releases in the near future on the Paramount label. They were to be promoted under the wing of Bill Gallagher of Famous Music. With Knight's album Down in the Village already released, Swete and Moore were to have their recordings released in the near future.[17]
In July 1978 and now going by the name Swete, he was set to record a disco album that would be played at roller skating rinks around the US. The music which would be a mixture of Top 40 and disco would feature Swete backed by a band whose identity hadn't yet been disclosed. The record was to be played at intervals at the skating rinks.[18] It seems in that period, Swete was also going by the name of Knight 'En Day. It was reported by Billboard in the magazine's May 19, 1979 issue that 30,000 copies of the single "Disco Dip" had been sold from 25 skating rinks.[19] The singles were not for general sale via the traditional venues. They were to be sold at the skating rinks.[20]
Later years
"Backfield In Motion" was on Netti Page's playlist in March 2011 as part of the New Zealand Soul Weekender. [21]
