Harpo's Old Vic Reunion's always clash with Cleethorpe's so sadly always miss 'em. In the early 80's Chris was right up there with the best of them, and the old Vic was probably the leading soul night in the countrywith Chris as the main man. Didn't you get Larry Clinton off him. He sold the remainder of his collection to John Anderson. Dave Welding No mine came from Clarlie wish i still had it. i bought a few things of Chris but he had sold quite a few by the time i got there used to have a flat in a transport depot in Walsall Edited December 25, 200915 yr by Tedsoul

January 2, 201015 yr remember Sam playing this at Nottm Palais and hearing it at Stafford a bit later. Always sounded messy to me. to this day its not one of my faves. Vocals too overpowering , not enough of the backing track apart from the keyboard riff. having said that, i enjoyed the youtube link of them doing it live. very nice, probably better than the original recording in my opinion

January 3, 201015 yr If there was a box that simply read: "Awesome, love it!", then I'd vote but the "super rare monster" bit turns me off voting, because that's not what attracted me. Love the main vocal and backing harmonies, quirky tempo and uplifting roller-coaster flow of this track. Here's the rehearsal I caught at Prestatyn (apologies for the wabble in my walk towards the stage): m

January 3, 201015 yr What Northern Soul is all about IMHO. Its far from perfect but that's probably the appeal of the record, a bunch of blokes giving it their all in the studio.
January 3, 201015 yr This reminds me of almost the best 25 minutes of my life seeing them perform live im blubbing at the moment
