The Golden World Story
Andre Williams

There had been no Golden
World13, no Ric-Tic13 and no Wingate13. Superstitious to say
the least.
Wingate014 was the
follow-up to Hank Marr's "White house grove" and
was typical of the unique sound of the great Andre Williams.
The song was titled "Loose
juice".
On year later, "You got it and I want it",
was released on Ric-Tic124.
Andre had moved to Detroit
from Chicago in the fifties and joined up with Jack and Devora
Brown at Fortune.
There he recorded
two classic songs in "Bacon
fat" and "Jail bait".
The former was one
of the Fortune's first recordings on Third Street.
In a relatively
short stay at Golden World, Andre also wrote and produced
for Gino Parks, J.J. Barnes, and Laura Lee. The songs crept
out as flip sides, however. He did, however, co-write and
produce the
Dramatic's novelty song "Inky dinky wang dang
do"
A move back to
Chicago saw him work with Alvin Cash at Mar-V-Lus.
