Samplat Posted January 30, 2010 Share Posted January 30, 2010 Just been to drax tonight and i can't believe how many people have never heard of :second hand love: out of interest how many can remember this being played in the seventies Link to comment Social source share More sharing options...
Rich B Posted January 30, 2010 Share Posted January 30, 2010 I had never heard it until I came across a bootleg years later. Was it one of those tracks that suffered because it was booted too soon? RB Link to comment Social source share More sharing options...

Rob Wigley Posted January 30, 2010 Share Posted January 30, 2010 Booted after a couple of plays on the strength of "Wash & Wear love" which is a totally different type of sound. Never had an original-but bought a boot on here last year for £5 as I had heard it out somewhere as well. A Cleethorpes sound via Rick Scott ?? so may explain why so many knew it at Drax Rob Link to comment Social source share More sharing options...

Oldsoulman Posted January 30, 2010 Share Posted January 30, 2010 (edited) Bought it as a boot late 70's or very early 80's , always been a great record. It also appeared on the Kent CD "Masterpieces Of Modern Soul" Edited January 30, 2010 by oldsoulman Link to comment Social source share More sharing options...
Guest Johnny Mack Posted January 30, 2010 Share Posted January 30, 2010 This was played at both Blackpool Mecca, Wigan and elsewhere in the early 70's and way before Ian Levine started playing the Gator 45 in '75/76 I've had a couple of copies of the Yummie 45 over the years but only once had the Gator 45. Neither of them seem to surface much nowadays. They are both quality 45's and I guess most copies of both 45's are safe and sound in the better collections. Great record.

Best John John i think i bought my copy off you at the mecca. Did you write your name on the label ? Link to comment Social source share More sharing options...
Guest Johnny Mack Posted January 30, 2010 Share Posted January 30, 2010 Quite possibly, I was a regular at the Mecca and Wigan in the early days. I used to have a bad habit of etching my n/name into the deadwax of 45's in those days. I was talking with Guy Hennigan a couple of years ago - he definately has my old copy of the Yummie 45. It's a small world ! Best John John i think i bought my copy off you at the mecca. Did you write your name on the label ? Link to comment Social source share More sharing options...
