Gene-r Posted March 16, 2012 Share Posted March 16, 2012 (edited) After my question regarding a UK recording of "I Can't Take No More" by Ted Wilson (given that it was written by Les Reed and Barry Mason), I've just found the following clip. The data I've managed to find on it so far is: JASON CORD & THE FIRST CHAPTER: "I Can't Take No More Of Your Lies (Les Reed, Barry Mason) Chapter 1 (CH 102). Released 14 June 1968 (B-side to "I've Got My Eyes On You"). Could this be the original? Edited March 16, 2012 by Gene-R 1 Link to comment Social source share More sharing options...

See the producer, he was a member of Teardrop Explodes - so I thought, except the Teardrop Explodes guy was born in 1958 so he would have done this one when he was 10 years old.

Gene-r Posted March 16, 2012 Author Share Posted March 16, 2012 (edited) Strange how the UK Jason Cord issue states the publishers as being Donna Music, yet the Ted Wilson lists the publishers as Leo Feist Music. That said, just seen that Jason Cord was also given a US release on Chapter 1 (45-2901). Publisher also listed as Leo Feist Music on that one too.

Wiggyflat Posted March 17, 2012 Share Posted March 17, 2012 I've had the Jason Cord in my pop collection for donkeys..Only ever played the Eyes side which is a dramatic orchestrated ballad....came out on the light green label.....I'm sure someone on RCA did it as well.

Soul-slider Posted March 17, 2012 Share Posted March 17, 2012 Certainly cheaper than I thought they'd be on UK Pete! There's no UK copies on ebay (a couple of US). It may go higher now its been exposed. More MOD than Northern though. Link to comment Social source share More sharing options...
