Luther Ingram, If It's All The Same, Instrumental Version

[Suinoz]

Am on holiday in Kefalonia and heard played in a bar the other night the instrumental version of If it's all the same to you. Was this ever released on a 45 ? Sounded great B.T.W.

[Iancsloft]

It's on the flip side to the vocal. On HIB

[Guest Andy Kempster]

and its called exus trek

[Quinvy]

And it's the original side to be played. I've always thought the vocal was dreadful, Exus Trek for me everytime.

Dreadful??????

[Citizen P]

One of the first sounds I ever heard at The Pendulum in '72,

and yes prefer Exus Trek too.

One of those records that hits the spot every time.

I like them both and realise that "If It's All The Same To You Babe" is the PLUG SIDE, However,

Always thought of Exus Trek as the main side.

"If It's All The Same To You Babe" as the VOCAL to "Exus Trek"

Rather than "Exus Trek" the Instrumental of "If It's All The Same To You Babe"

If you know what I mean.

I know what you mean about the Exus Trek track like Bari Track track being the errr! Track against the vocal version. Taking of that the Thelma Hopkins !!!! what a killer version.

Exactly.

Bari Track and The Vocal to Bari Track.

Instrumental Perfection. Oh and there's a Vocal too (Almost an After Thought)

[Robbk]

I think the vocal by Luther is very good.

Do you mean Thelma Hopkins of Dawn ?

Killer version of which, Bari Track or Exus Trek ?

[Guest chorleybloke]

I don't even recall the vocal ever being played at Wigan - was it? But as is the case these days, vocal versions seem to be more in vogue than instrumentals

Cheers......Pete

The vocal was picked up by scooterists in the early 80's, otherwise never really played at all, remember having one of those orange HIB reissues and I never played it either

Telma Hopkins - This Heart Is Lonely' - according to Ady when he played when we were at 100 Club last October. Great piece on her here:
