King pursued a brief and largely unsuccessful solo career in the early 70s after having

into Mighty Baby. However, several members of the Action/Mighty Baby
contributed to his sole, self-titled album, released in 1971

This collection included ‘Little Boy’, which was originally intended to be the Action’s final a-side.
Despite the presence of King’s winning vocals, among the best the UK R&B movement
had ever offered, the album failed to sell and King disappeared from the music industry thereafter...(AllMusic)
