Chris Anderton Posted September 24, 2011 Share Posted September 24, 2011 John may need to answer this himself or it may just be too bloody obvious that everyone knows the answer but me! In Johns book Eddy Jacobs Exchange "Pull my coat/ Black is black" Columbia 44821 is listed as "FLove" for genre. What genre is Flove? Cheers, Chris ps. page 271 in the 5th edition.

Amsterdam Russ Posted September 24, 2011 Share Posted September 24, 2011 (edited) Ah, I see the problem. It's a glitch in the formatting. There should be a space and line break between the F and Love. F represents the category = Funk. Love represents the first word of the following song title on the line underneath, which should read: Love (Your pain goes deep).

boba Posted September 25, 2011 Share Posted September 25, 2011 here is one side https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=YqiwtSMNDqI I don't know the other side but it might be a cover of the los bravos record? Link to comment Social source share More sharing options...
Ian Dewhirst Posted September 25, 2011 Share Posted September 25, 2011 here is one side https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=YqiwtSMNDqI I don't know the other side but it might be a cover of the los bravos record? It is. They also did a cute version of the Four Tops "Can't Seem To Get You Out Of My Mind"...... Ian D Link to comment Social source share More sharing options...
Guest Posted September 26, 2011 Share Posted September 26, 2011 Other side is a slow soulful track but does open with a fast open breakbeat and then simmers down .. very strange intro I have to say ! Link to comment Social source share More sharing options...
boba Posted September 26, 2011 Share Posted September 26, 2011 It is. They also did a cute version of the Four Tops "Can't Seem To Get You Out Of My Mind"...... Also, "love your pain runs deep" is the same track that frankie beverly and the butlers do on gamble. but each version credits the performing group so it's not clear who stole from whom.

Godzilla Posted September 26, 2011 Share Posted September 26, 2011 Russ, I dont know the record so to clarify, are both sides funk?

Also, "love your pain runs deep" is the same track that frankie beverly and the butlers do on gamble. but each version credits the performing group so it's not clear who stole from whom. Both the Eddy Jacobs 45 and the Beverly + Butlers on Sassy credit Billy Jackson as the writer. He's promoted to William Jackson on the Gamble issue of Frankie Beverly. which seems to have been released in 1968 while Eddy Jacobs came out in in '69. This topic throws up a couple of interesting points, I feel. Given that there are concerns that the Northern scene has gone "too funky," there's clearly a substantial divide between a lot of the collectors if 'Pull My Coat' isn't that well known. It's kind of essential funk stuff that's maybe the equivalent of a top 500 Northern record. Wasn't aware of a version of 'Love, Your Pain Goes Deep' by Los Bravos though - if I understand that's what being said here. Can't imagine it being much cop. Anybody got more info or a link to anywhere that it can be heard? Link to comment Social source share More sharing options...

Can't imagine it being much cop. Anybody got more info or a link to anywhere that it can be heard? There seems to be some confusion here. Their two 45s on COLUMBIA are as follows: Eddy Jacobs Exchange - Pull My Coat / Black Is Black - COLUMBIA 44821 Eddy Jacobs Exchange- Can't Seem To Get You Out Of My Mind / Love (Your Pain Goes Deep) - COLUMBIA 45174 The flipside to "Pull My Coat" is indeed a version of Los Bravos hit "Black Is Black". Much faster and more of a stomper than Los Bravos cut though. Link to comment Social source share More sharing options...
Guest Posted September 26, 2011 Share Posted September 26, 2011 here's some soundclips to the 2nd 45 : jazzman reissued it ! https://www.jazzmanrecords.co.uk/v2/search.asp?s=Yl68dv288011&strKeywords=eddy+jacobs yes this 45 I think is definitely seen as a funk45 : Sounds like the 45 with 'Black is Black' on has the more Northern style flip ! instantly made me think of Lord Sitar and his version lol Link to comment Social source share More sharing options...

Much faster and more of a stomper than Los Bravos cut though. I feel like an idiot now. I've got a copy of 'Pull My Coat' but mines the double sided promo. Used to have a copy of 'Can't Seem To Get You...' too (old Wigan sound for Richard Searling), which is obviously where I know the flip from.
