funkyfeet Posted May 29, 2010 Posted May 29, 2010 anyone got a copy of this on a 45 please ? dunno value so please state price Dave Did it come out as a 7" edit, not come across one, only 12" but I hope it's better version as a 7" edit than the 12, which pales against the Dells IMO.

Daz Mc Posted May 29, 2010 Posted May 29, 2010 was talking to Pat Brady last night and he seems to think it came out on a 7" but as you say not seen one Dave Definately came out on a 7" on Calibre label , ive had a 7" and a 12", both very hard to find , good luck in your search
Dave West Posted May 29, 2010 Author Posted May 29, 2010 Definately came out on a 7" on Calibre label , ive had a 7" and a 12", both very hard to find , good luck in your search 12" on ebay at moment, cheap too but want 7" only own two 12" singles, DJ Genesis and Alfie davison and both collecting dust.
Dranny Posted May 29, 2010 Posted May 29, 2010 Definately came out on a 7" on Calibre label , ive had a 7" and a 12", both very hard to find , good luck in your search Just to confirm Yes it definately came out on a 7"on Calibre label , i have a picture sleeve copy but would not part with it got a 12" for sale £10 but trust me this is inferior to the 7" and has disco type breaks in it keep looking for the 7" and best of luck, this is a better version than the Dells dare i say it and that takes some beating . Martyn

Martyn The 7" must be totally different from the 12" because that's crap.
Dave Pinch Posted May 29, 2010 Posted May 29, 2010 (edited) FOUR TOPS YOUR SONG 7 IN LAURA LEE YOUR SONG 7IN ORIG VERSION FROM JULY 1979 MY COPIES SADLY NOT FOR SALE BUT JUST TO PUT THE RECORD STRAIGHT £30 EACH I WOULD SAY Edited May 29, 2010 by dave pinch
Dranny Posted May 29, 2010 Posted May 29, 2010 The 7" must be totally different from the 12" because that's crap. Yes it is listen to Dave's you tube posting , the 7" is the one to have , iv'e played this out a few times and am always asked about it , unknown to many and rarely seen for sale so price is a difficult one . would certainly go big if a big name dj were to play it. Martyn
Dave Pinch Posted May 29, 2010 Posted May 29, 2010 i think the four tops 7in and laura lee 7in take a bit of tracking down these days. both readily available on twelves but they are poor substitutes dave
Sean Hampsey Posted May 29, 2010 Posted May 29, 2010 Laura Lee was the original recording. I have a 12" for sure (played it at Clifton Hall, as did Pat Brady) but pretty sure I don't have a 7" The Four Tops I have on a 7" with pic cover, bought as a new release. Both are inferior to the Dells (IMO). Sean
sepia Posted May 29, 2010 Posted May 29, 2010 i had the the 7 pc & the 12. i still have the pc for the 7,but no record? & think i sold the 12 on here last year. i bought them both from pete widdison @ morecambe scooter rally 1986,thinking it was the dells. after a 8 hour drive home on the scooter to aberdeen,i was well pissd it was the wrong version when put on the deck. i know better now,lol.
Daryl Posted May 29, 2010 Posted May 29, 2010 anyone got a copy of this on a 45 please ? dunno value so please state price Dave Hi Dave got the 7" as others have said the 12 is crap Daryl
Dave West Posted May 29, 2010 Author Posted May 29, 2010 Hi Dave got the 7" as others have said the 12 is crap Daryl sell me it then.....

Sean Nice one Sean As i said dare i say its the best version and to me its the Levi Subbs vocals that does it for me but just goes to show what a quality record this really is Dells Four Tops mmmmmm how do you chose quality either direction Martyn

Wasn't there a story that Calibre did not have permission from Don Davis to release the songs as he had not finished with his production of them so they withdrew it? This may account for so few issues being available. Also I have the Laura Lee 12" which I have found to be the same as the 7". I did have a UK 12" of the Dells as well as the 7" - yes, I like the tune!
Dave Pinch Posted June 1, 2010 Posted June 1, 2010 NO ONE CAN HELP THEN................. keep persevering dave. tom wheelhouse was looking for one a while back and i`m still not sure if he tracked one down. some import 45`s at £300 are easier to get hold of but stick at it. dave
Ady Lupton Posted June 2, 2010 Posted June 2, 2010 NO ONE CAN HELP THEN................. Hi Dave I've got a 7" if you're still interested? Ex/M- if my memory serves me right, no picture sleeve though I'm afraid. Ady
Dave West Posted June 3, 2010 Author Posted June 3, 2010 Hi Dave I've got a 7" if you're still interested? Ex/M- if my memory serves me right, no picture sleeve though I'm afraid. Ady PM me with price please Dave
