 Notes  
     Sweet Pea Atkinson grinded away on Detroit's soul circuit in the
     late 70's, work that brought him to the attention of Was (Not Was),
     the art-R&B project helmed by Don and David Was. During the 80's,
     Was (Not Was) slowly built a cult following before scoring a
     breakthrough in 1988 with "What Up, Dog", an album that became a hit
     on the strength of the pseudo-novelty "Walk The Dinosaur". Atkinson
     shared lead vocals on the song with Harry Bowens, as he usually did
     on Was (Not Was), but the group also supported Atkinson on his solo
     album, "Don't Walk Away" in 1982.
     For all intents and purposes, "Don't Walk Away" is a Was (Not Was)
     record: It features the band's lead singer, much of the material was
     written by Don and David Was (who also produced), and the tracks are
     played by 'The Was (Not Was) Orchestra'. Tracks like "Dance Or Die"
     are typical of Was (Not Was)'s approach of ironic lyrics and
     dancefloor beats. Atkinson proves a good frontman in the husky
     soul-man mold, especially when he's given more typical soul-pop fare
     like General Johnson's "Don't Walk Away" or the Bacharach/David
     chestnut "Anyone Who Had A Heart".
