Eddie Hubbard Posted May 5, 2009 Posted May 5, 2009 I've got this unusual UK President release Freddie North " I have a dream " c/w Roger Hatcher " I'm gonna dedicate my song to you " on a Demo copy .Does anyone on here have a copy , it's not in John's UK book .Roger Hatcher is of course the flip to " Sweetest girl in the world " which means they could've released that gem if they'd wanted .Anyone got an issue of this record ? Any feedback welcome ,Cheers ,Eddie
Paul McKay Posted May 5, 2009 Posted May 5, 2009 Hi Eddie Yes I've got an issue. Must be pretty rare as I've not seen another copy before. Came out in 1968 I think, although I bought mine in the 90s if I remember correctly. Strange combination of tracks eh? Paul
dthedrug Posted May 5, 2009 Posted May 5, 2009 Hi Ed This is of course one of the UK singles that annoys me every time I get round to pulling it out to play in the 7ts I had the sweetest girl, but sold it years ago, in fact I may try a chase a copy, yes in Presidents wisdom the issued the official a sides to both tunes, in all the years collecting UK stuff I have always found DEMOS of this single I am uncertain it was released still its one for the collection DAVE KIL
Blake H Posted May 6, 2009 Posted May 6, 2009 (edited) Think it was the same situation with Bessie Banks "Dont you worry baby" as Contempo released the other side "Try to leave me" but not coupled with DYWB. Something on those lines, please correct me if I'm wrong as my reference books are not to hand. Are there any other instances of this happening? Blake H Edited May 6, 2009 by BLAKE H

Garethx Posted May 6, 2009 Posted May 6, 2009 "Dedicate" is a lovely record in its own right, maybe my favourite Roger Hatcher recording.
Eddie Hubbard Posted May 7, 2009 Author Posted May 7, 2009 Thanks for everyone's feedback , I think both sides are outstanding Deeper Soul , best wishes ,Eddie
