Steve Edgar Posted November 3, 2011 Posted November 3, 2011 Gave this some early night spins in the past.... If you don't know this,prepare to throw away your Josie copies.... Grover Michell "Take Your Time And Love Me" Brilliant! didn't know the Decca release was a different take! Got it on Josie (Which I wouldn't throw away mind!) But this take is Sooo much better, cheers for that Kev steve
gazman Posted November 3, 2011 Posted November 3, 2011 to be honest Gary, for pure soul quality, the "I Can't Do Without You Side" comes out top for me hope ya well bud, gonna miss Fraser on sat, we down at Red Bar in Wakefield steve .. flip to "Your Mother Understood"............ Funny enough 'I can't do without you' was the side I chose for Fraser's show last year. I'll see Fraser next week so I will pass on my regards to him. Enjoy The Red Bar, must try and get down to this as it sounds great. gary
Theothertosspot Posted November 3, 2011 Posted November 3, 2011 The one that does it for me today is Joe Frazier - The Bigger They Come (the harder they fall) on Cloverlay, what a tune. Think the label was set up by a group of American businessmen, and profits being made were to be used for funding a boxing organisation.

dthedrug Posted November 4, 2011 Author Posted November 4, 2011 HI ALL,,,C is for?......CHESS RECORDS, and as always It's on BRITISH I always seem to be crediting, my old mate, the "mouth of the south" (that's south of the river} the BERMONDSEY BARROW BOY, Mick SMITH, for being the person who turned me on to records like this one? but it's a fact! for me at least. this has to be one of the few records, that grows & grows on you, a bit like a BLACK & WHITE X RATED MOVIE, I LOVED IT FROM THE FIRST TIME IT WAS PLAYED TO ME! and in 2011/12 I could easy see a cover version of it become a HIT for some SORT with pink lippy & blond Barnett, Let's call her "SCRUFFY"? However this RARE CHESS SOUND, comes from the voice of Benice Swanson - CHESS CRS 8008. "LYING AWAKE" - VALUE £80 ISSUE, DEMO £ V-RARE, DK RATING *****A Perfic 60's MOD sound. Thanks to Pete Smith's BEAT-IN RHYTHM MAG for the flyer, which states all you need to know? GROOVY BABY, DAVE

Swifty Posted November 5, 2011 Posted November 5, 2011 This is one sometimes I play and love it and other times don't like it Think Poke got a good deal off me when I swapped a 'Night Owl' demo for this and £15 , uuuummmmmmm(Happy days eh?) has the funky edge that seems popular now though. Mike Jemison - Satisfaction - Geneva thought I'd got another version of 'Quick Change Artist' which is the other side , not quite the same though!! Swifty
dthedrug Posted November 5, 2011 Author Posted November 5, 2011 Morris Chestnut so I'm told on lead vocals...mine's the striped label variation....
