Harry Crosby Posted May 14, 2009 Posted May 14, 2009 Hi everybody, when i used to run the melodies soul nights in york, we had the pleasure of having andy rix guesting for us one night, and i`m sure he played an alternative mix to the more recognised version, can anyone give me any info etc on this, thanks in advance-HARRY
Dave Abbott Posted May 14, 2009 Posted May 14, 2009 now you mention it, Harry, i am sure that the 70s reissue (or is it a boot) is slightly different... i am not suggesting that's what Andy played (was prob some one off thing),

grant Posted May 14, 2009 Posted May 14, 2009 i`d never heard the version andy played that night dave, didn`t know about the 70`s re-issue being different either thanks for the info dave, anybody else know anything about this? heard a version with different intro,pretty sure it was on a kent lp comp from years back.

Always asumed it was taken from original masters or just re-mixed but it's not a legitimate release on 45 is it? Think it was on the Goldmine CD Big City Soul Vol 4 with all the Scepter, Wand & Musicor stuff which also included Platters version of Johnny Hampton. Think it was also released on a Goldmine reissue 45. Regards Jorge

Regards Jorge cheers jorge, hope your well? think if i remember rightly and ive only heard it the once, the intro kicks in again after the first verse ,or something like that
Dave Rimmer Posted May 14, 2009 Posted May 14, 2009 Hi everybody, when i used to run the melodies soul nights in york, we had the pleasure of having andy rix guesting for us one night, and i`m sure he played an alternative mix to the more recognised version, can anyone give me any info etc on this, thanks in advance-HARRY Without having heard the version Andy played, it would almost certainly be the longer version that Kent released on one of their early albums.
Benji Posted May 14, 2009 Posted May 14, 2009 Without having heard the version Andy played, it would almost certainly be the longer version that Kent released on one of their early albums. I think the Kent 45 that came out in the 80s had the alternative take with the different intro too ...
Harry Crosby Posted May 14, 2009 Author Posted May 14, 2009 I think the Kent 45 that came out in the 80s had the alternative take with the different intro too ... thanks for the info guys, will have a listen out for this version
Pete S Posted May 14, 2009 Posted May 14, 2009 Mr Rimmer is correct, first appeared on a Kent LP in the 80's, it has the extended intro which starts with "they warned me, they told me, you'd leave me lonely"

Guest Posted May 14, 2009 Posted May 14, 2009 (edited) i've got it somewhere but can't find it at mo - couldn't even tell you what label - when i find it i'll put sound file and scan up. dont't know who by but it definitely got played at wigan Edited May 14, 2009 by mikecook
Tony Smith Posted May 14, 2009 Posted May 14, 2009 so i`m assuming this was not an original 45 release, in the states? Hi Harry, definitely unreleased until Ady Croasdell comped it for Kent and played it down the 100.
Harry Crosby Posted May 14, 2009 Author Posted May 14, 2009 Hi Harry, definitely unreleased until Ady Croasdell comped it for Kent and played it down the 100. Hi tony, as i say ive only heard it the once, and forgot about it till the other day, many thanks
Guest TONY ROUNCE Posted May 14, 2009 Posted May 14, 2009 There are other alternate takes of TNWTTAG, too, including a slightly slower one. I included one (or maybe two) of these on "Bluesoul Belles Vol. 2 - Marie Knight & Judy Clay" which I did at Westside in 2001. Think there are still some unreleased takes, to. Will check my CDRs later on and report back...
