Beware!

1981 studio album by Barry White

Beware! is a studio album by the American musician Barry White, released in 1981.[3][4] Produced by White, it was the fourth release on his own CBS-affiliated custom label, Unlimited Gold. Peaking at #40 on the R&B chart, it fared better than his previous duet album with his wife which had failed to chart at all. It was preceded by the first single, a cover of Richard Berry`s "Louie Louie", originally released in 1957. White performed it on Soul Train on September 19, 1981, but it failed to chart. The second single, the title track of the album, was also a cover version from the 1950s, originally written by Jo Ann Belvin for her husband Jesse Belvin shortly before they were both killed in a motor accident in 1960. "Beware" reached #49 on the R&B charts.[5] As with his previous album, White`s UK label did not release any singles from the album.
