Tom Brock (born August 25, 1942 – May 25, 2002 Tom James Brocker[1]) was an American soul singer, born in Austin Texas. Brock worked with Barry White on the 20th Century Records label in the 1970s.[2] He wrote songs for Gloria Scott's 1974 album What Am I Gonna Do?, including "A Case Of Too Much Love Makin".[2] That same year he also released his one and only album, I Love You More And More, which included a highly popular title track.[3] The album was produced by White and Gene Page.[3] The song "There's Nothing In This World That Can Stop Me From Loving You" was later sampled by producer Just Blaze for the single "Girls, Girls, Girls" on Jay-Z's album The Blueprint.[4] This led to renewed interest in Brock, and in 2003 the album was re-released on CD.[5]

He died of natural causes on May 25, 2002, in his home in Richmond, California.
