  Why I Came To California  
  Rockin' You Eternally  
  To coincide with Expansion's release of Leon's two iconic Elektra albums, back to back on one CD, two signature tracks have been brought together here on 7" single. Outside of all the great work Leon contributed to other artists, notably Marvin Gaye, both "Why I Came To California" and "Rockin' You Eternally" are songs he is best remembered for as a solo artist. The love of Leon and both these songs keep Leon performing through to this dates, including nights at Ronnie Scotts in London last year. Leon continues to record beyind these 80s records, and Expansion have been honoured to represent his music over the years with reissues, compilations and new recordings.
