Citizen P Posted March 1, 2012 Posted March 1, 2012 The Marvelettes did The Stranger, according to my friend Ian. It's on Sophisticated Soul LP, not sure if it's the version in question though. Tony
Chalky Posted March 1, 2012 Posted March 1, 2012 The Marvelettes did The Stranger, according to my friend Ian. it was on Sophisticated Soul, info in post three.
Chalky Posted March 1, 2012 Posted March 1, 2012 It's on Sophisticated Soul LP, not sure if it's the version in question though. Tony Robb K might know, he did the tapes.
Pete S Posted March 1, 2012 Posted March 1, 2012 it was on Sophisticated Soul, info in post three. I didn't understand the post Chalky, it lists artists, recordings and master numbers but doesn't actually mention The Stranger...
Chalky Posted March 1, 2012 Posted March 1, 2012 I didn't understand the post Chalky, it lists artists, recordings and master numbers but doesn't actually mention The Stranger... My fault, must have missed the title when copying and pasting the info (with ipad) to here. will amend.
