Guest Bicks Posted May 2, 2009 Share Posted May 2, 2009 In The Velvellettes- Lonely Lonely Girl Am I. At about 1:45 there's the line: 'Haven't been able to sleep at night, don't make sense to try to eat a pie'. I mean...They are right, no way is eating a pie ever going to be a cure for insomnia, and I'm sure that any nutritionalist worth his (low-sodium) salt would tell you that eating such a high-fat stodgy food in the early hours can only be bad for you, but it's not a great line for a Motown song, is it?

Lee Roye is a stock copy in EX with a few non-sounding marks, Four Tops is a red and white demo, visually vg+ plays terrific though, clean label, centre intact.

Guest Eridu Posted May 2, 2009 Share Posted May 2, 2009 Joanne Touchstone... 'Walk Softly' Found this in a thrift shop for a quarter, listened to it on my portable, and the sudden brilliance that filled the shop was palpable... "You've gotta...walk softly I say, don't stomp your feet! You might wake him up and then, we'd be in a far out treat... You've never, seen my dad mad and you're lucky you ain't! Cause I guarantee he's no saint! And he might frown, so keep it down! 'Cause I wanna make love to you, under the stars so blue - but if you don't watch out....you might hear a shout!
