Love this thread

Few more that I am partial to -

The Bygraves "Set Me Free" Un - Heard (What A Record !)

Rosemary Bain "Please Consider" Popcorn 1993

Donna Gardier "I'll Be There" Virgin 1990 (Fond Memories Of Upnorth Weekenders)

Billy John "Willing Ways" Kaption (Nice 70s sounding Indi production not great)

Nick Allen - Need More Time on T.I.M.E. 12" wicked.gif

Girf

Didn't realise this thread was still going...........................

Nick Allen a BEAST of a 12" and one that surely will go huge (one day)

Very similar in feel and tempo to 'So many sides of you' (and before you reply Gav, no the vox aint as good as BW but whose is????) :ohmy:

Cheers

Not a favourite, but just digging through some vinyl & quite liked: Tomorrow's Wish -My Love With You / You Happened To Me - Coastal Records.

I forgot how much the A side sounds like Tearra - Loving You

I like this un - it reminds of another fave of mine 'Gifted Four' 'Are you choosing' on Ham-Sem

A twelver, but strictly speaking an EMI mini LP by Color Blind containing the track "Crazy". Anybody know if it got a release otherwise?

Just listening to the 12 of George Benson - On Broadway ...........nice!

Think Ive got the UK 12 on Color Blind ... :D

3rdded, f***ing fantastic piece of music, Jim O'Hara found a few of these and spread the word. proper soul music, seems strange on 12" though, anyone know the year and history of it??

Was a 12" (horrible pink vinyl mind) of this in ebay other week £5 and not one bid, was going to post link here but didn't want to in case someone was watching for bargain.

Have to look out couple of 12"'s for Mr Gasher today so will find this and play it a few 100 times I think.

Cheers

Always reminds of Kev Griffin early 1984 (Steve G's good mate) saying to me. I'm going commercial Simon, like Steve Walsh and this is my power play Larry Wu ...Brilliant

Funnily enough I heard a corker tonight a 12" of a familiar tune that was absolutely superb Kev Etheridge played it at the 3 Greyhounds and sad to say i had never heard the 12" version before

Eddie Kendricks - Date with the rain

come to think of it his other stormer of the same album is a mighty mighty 12"

Eddie Kendricks - Girl you need a change of mind

I think the confusion over the Bill Haris track comes from the fact you have a short and long version, people on hearing the longer version most probably take it that it's a 12" version of the song.

But :(

15. Am I Cold, Am I Hot - Bill Harris

We conclude with a feel good finale record that epitomises the point where 70s end of crossover northern soul meets modern soul and keeps everyone happy. Like the We The People track, the original 7' exchanges hands for £100 - £150 while re-issues satisfy the ever-increasing demand for this gem (which is even harder to find on a US RCA 12'). Written and produced by the extraordinarily talented late, great, Van McCoy it's a pure soul delight. Much like this entire compilation!

Compiled by Richard Searling & Ralph Tee

Simon there is an extended version of Bill Harris's AIHAIC..On a Rca sampler from the Early Seventies!! wiich is about 5+mins long

Gray I know I have the album, 12 and 7 of both of them

Actually the 12 of date with the rain was a pressy from Mrs Trout this year, if you haven't heard it i stropngly suggest that you do very different from the LP and 7 whislt maintaining the essence simply superb IMVFHO

On a West Kenyan NIA import. Reminds me of Sheffield Tiffany's in the early 80's. I have one for sale incidentally.

Great thread this.

Really like the 12" version of "Summertime" by High Frequency.

Was great upstairs at Tiffanys in the early 80s (room called treetops i think).

Seen Summertime 12s on orange NIA & gold NIA labels (mine's orange) but didn't realise it came out of Kenya. The 7" versions good but the 12" knocks spots off it.

Just out of curiousity how much do you want for it?
