Just blank labels on both sides If I remember correctly - no writing, just the respective artwork? Edited July 5, 201014 yr by John Benson

Apparently was one of Max Millward's fave tunes ( R.I.P. ) Tony. Hi Tony, I still have that one too. He was the father (and manager) of 'Brit Pop' group 'Five Star' so I've always thought it was recorded in the UK and not released elsewhere. Sean

For years I thought the proper title was 'Shing a King Stroll' Joe, cos that was all I had. I think there are probably more misprints out there than the corrected ones. Sean
