How this one has stayed under the radar for so long is a mystery to me. Ok its motown and its by one of the worlds best know bands but still............ If this is not a perfect cross over dancer ...

THE ADMIRATIONS 'Don't leave me'...Together with KEV'S previous posting, got to be two of the greatest 'cheapos' ever! Just spun'em back to back, fantastic stuff!

Another classic double sider from Michigan, and the Mutt label. Sophisticates "I Can't Stand It" and "I Need You"

...and for me the best side......

Spencer "My baby's Coming Home"

Ritchie, was thinking bout posting this track last week, I can never make my mind up if I love it or hate it??? Love Spencer's vocal, it's just that "burping" backing vocal

.. couple of good 'uns there lads--hope this contributes to the awesomeness :thumbsup:

Lenny Welch "You Can't Run away"

always been a fan of Lenny Welch, lovely track, He's also got another great mercury 45 "Wait Awhile Longer" which always seems to slip under the radar? (got a great ballad flip too with "Darling Stay With Me") With credits like Carl Davis, Gerald Sims and Riley Hampton. it has to be ok! will maybe post it up later in week :thumbsup:

In JM's.....issues £75,demo's £50 but agree would never have paid £75 or even half that?Been keeping an eye out for one for awhile without chasing it with much gusto & you don't see it that often,so as you say £20 I would think was about right?

Good to hear another good B side,just need it hit the doormat now :thumbsup:

:hatsoff2:HI ALL As I have been watching Pete Smith vidio #3, and very good it was all that info, especialy about, your coments on the"TROJAN" DUKE REID & the Treasure Isle cut was good, however to sugest that REGGEA is fast ROCK STEADY! Needs looking at as REID was one of several sound men who claimed the new Uptempo Bass Rythem that got it's name like in the same manor JUMP UP SKA

ROCK STEADY AND REGGEA, THROUGH THE DANCE STYLE ASSOCIATED with the rythem, and it's the drum and bass that makes it,

However my record for to-day is the B side of FRED HUGHS CLASSIC, OO WEE BABY, I LOVE TOU, - FONTANA TF 583, "LOVE ME BABY".

WHAT A SUPERLITIVE SOUL 45, THE TOP SIDE WAS A HIT IN ALL THE SOUL CLUBS WHEN i LEFT SCHOOL, I CAN REMEMBER THE FIRST TIME I HERED IT BEING PLAYED, IT WAS IN THE CASTLE VERNON BOWLING ALLY IN PRESTON,

Ihave often wonderd who the DJ was as he played BOB KUBIN the CHEATER, folowed by I'M A BELIEVER, THIS WAS EARLY 67 I WAS 15,

TREAT YOURSELF TO BOTH SIDES AND THEN BOTH SIDES OF "THE DUCK" Anouther FONTANA record with a FAB B side :huh:DAVE K

post-13241-0-89691900-1321324826_thumb.j ENJOY!

Yep, Steve's been playing it at Heywood recently, people coming up asking what it is-

Tell 'em, if you got any Fred Hughes tunes you've probably got it

.

:yes:

Can I just add a small complaint folks- a little one liner to say what you're posting would help, as Youtube is blocked on works machine and it's taking me hours to go through when I get home.

I quite like the President look too. My sister's 9 years older than me & amongst her appalling vinyl collection when i was 5 or 6, were The Symbols & Felice Taylor. Grabbed my attention straight away. I totally ignored Deep Purple, Blue Oyster Band and her collection of rock singles tho lol

Great if you had a sibling (hate that word), who had taste, but my sister really didn't! Freda Payne - Band of Gold was the BEST thing in her collection! And my parents were even worse, with bleedin' country & western aplenty along with other people singing The Everly Brothers & Elvis - horrendous in my house as a kid lol

Sod it - second one from me today, but I must have missed a day out somewhere!! And it's not a "cheapie" - so that's two rules broken in one post lol

Love this to death and such an awesome two-sider (can't find Ooh Baby on youtube though) and yet another courtesy of Craig M a few months back.

Singing Sam & Kitty Grove - Move It Baby
