One of my favourites from my mod days in early 80s. Just found a couple of this version on a 7" EP. I do believe this is a record company who made lot's of cheap, and mostly bad versions of all kind of music, cos there was a lot of these records there with rock, pop, reggae and country.

But the Harlem shuffle is quite good IMO, good vocals and backing. No artist name, anyone who knows this?

Ah! Sorry Mark, I thought we were talking about 'versions' of the song in which case it seemed quite right to omit the original from the list.

The Traits Pye International 7N25404 issued 27 Jan 1967.

As you'd expect from Roy Head's band pretty frantic version.

I sold one a couple of years ago for £75...just checked it on Popsike and now need to go and sit down in a darkened room!

Didn't realise the demand would push it to $679 with 12 bids!

Is that its going rate nowadays?

There's a cool sax-led instrumental version on the flip of the Contempo reissue of Bob & Earl

Thanks mate!

WHO can sell me a copy of this, need it :thumbup:

Tommy,

this is on Brett's funk board swap, so you can listen to that until you locate a copy.
