Just Be Yourself / It's Everything About You

The Pretenders were the Carnival label's main act throughout the 70s and up to 1980. By 1977 producer Joe Evans was embracing the disco era and recorded them on the excellent Kenneth Ruffin song,'Just Be Yourself'. It's furious yet solid rhythm and catchy title-line has captivated soul dancers for many years making the originals expensive and very hard to find now. The flip was their last release, an updated and disco-slanted version of Lee Williams & the Cymbals' ballad 'It's Everything About You That I Love'.
