Folks,

Recently heard this (demo?) via a rather splendid interweb radio show, has this recently come to light or has it been around a spell? I'm assuming unreleased.

Very nice it is too.

Thanks

It's been around a good while. Its on a Goldmine CD from some 10 (?) years ago.

Melvin actually wrote it.

Great tune... and beautiful on a 45 by Darrell Banks.

Yep - I have the UK Stax copty too Jim.

I first played it out in the early/mid 70's with little success (it didn't really fit the STOMP, STOMP mentality of the time for most people).

It was early 80's at Clifton Hall before I started hammering it... and it caught fire!

Superb record for sure and an ACE double sider!

On a vaguely related theme, how about the Darrell Banks ace version of Never Alone, got it on a late 60s Volt LP, unreleased as 45 (apart from the version when he was in the Holidays of course)

Good shout!

"Never Alone" is on the "Here To Stay" LP... which is home to the equally brilliant "Forgive Me"...

...Pure Class!

I concur, but 'Look into the eyes of a fool' slays me everytime also. I'm sure Cleveland Horne wrote it.

I'll have to get it out nowthumbsup.gif .

I wonder what would have happened to DB if he hadn't met his untimely end? Only 26ish years old as well.

At least the brits are the custodians of his legacy,
