hey up trev - is this the right title or a tape swoppers/cover up thing? I ask because there's a Detroit 45 on Karen/Carla that has that song title. Just can't recall the chaps name off hand (Ray ?), I do recall Tim Ashibende buying it off me for £30 at the 100 Club mid/late 90s I think maybe...

Thats the one! Had it on an old tape as Grant Higgins, for some reason, possibly a c/u name.

Dont know about the UUUUUUURRGGHH Dave, I think it is quite nice!

Manship guide- Karen 322 £200.

The name of Rod Jordan is a psuedonym for Grant Higgins. Ollie McLoughlin thought Grant's name was a disadvantage so he made him change it for this, the second release by Grant on the label.

Not particularly soulful, but a reasonably hard number to locate nowadays if you're trying to complete the label. Grant Higgins went on to play with a number Rock N Roll and Beach groups. his nephew Weldon is writing a book in tribute to Grant which will include his Detroit "era".

All useless info but then that's what makes us what we are eh? :rolleyes:

Regards,

Dave

reminded Tim Ash of this incident last night at Keele. Just shows what sort of brain/memory I have when I can recall details like this but forget my mums birthday. And yeah the record aint that good, sold it because I realised I was only foolishly keeping it because thats what a collector should do. Mmmm?
