Drew3 Posted October 26, 2012 Posted October 26, 2012 (edited) Came across this great (new to me) tune a few days ago on Dave Greet's page on the Hitsville Soul Club site and I can't stop playing it from the site player (on You Tube as well). Awesome record. Is anyone playing this out at the moment? Could someone post a You Tube link to the record for this thread as I don't know how to do it? Also, is Dave Greet on here? I would like to PM him about something. Cheers. Drew Edited October 26, 2012 by Drew3 2

Davenpete Posted October 26, 2012 Posted October 26, 2012 (edited) Knocks spots off To The Bitter End (always preferred it by Night Train anyway). Dx PS TtheBE was Wigan. Edited October 26, 2012 by DaveNPete
Dave Moore Posted October 26, 2012 Posted October 26, 2012 Knocks spots off To The Bitter End (always preferred it by Night Train anyway). Dx PS TtheBE was Wigan. Yep should have made that a little clearer, can't remember the flip being played too much until about 2000 though. Regards, Dave
phillyDaveG Posted October 27, 2012 Posted October 27, 2012 Often in my play box. I agree "Tell me.." is much better than the flip. 1
Drew3 Posted October 27, 2012 Author Posted October 27, 2012 Could some kind person put TMYLM on here from YouTube please? Many thanks in advance. Drew

Mister Fish Posted October 28, 2012 Posted October 28, 2012 'The Accoustics' version is brilliant . Best Russ Don't know this version Russ. Got a clip?

Stillsoulin Posted November 3, 2012 Posted November 3, 2012 been listening to this over the last few months and am convinced the backing singers are the three degrees, listen to their harmonies, anyone know for sure? Rob h.
Davetay Posted November 3, 2012 Posted November 3, 2012 Yep should have made that a little clearer, can't remember the flip being played too much until about 2000 though. Regards, Dave Dave, "To The Bitter End" was played out alot in the 1st year of Wigan.
Dave Moore Posted November 3, 2012 Posted November 3, 2012 Dave, "To The Bitter End" was played out alot in the 1st year of Wigan. Yep, Can't remember the flip being though until around 2000. Regards, Dave
Roger Williams Posted November 3, 2012 Posted November 3, 2012 Awesome tune, always loved this. This would be my definition of 'crossover'. Roger
Davetay Posted November 4, 2012 Posted November 4, 2012 Yep, Can't remember the flip being though until around 2000. Regards, Dave Sorry Dave, didn't read your post right and got mixed up. I became aware of the flip sometime in the 90s, care of Mr Brown, lol.
Robbk Posted November 4, 2012 Posted November 4, 2012 been listening to this over the last few months and am convinced the backing singers are the three degrees, listen to their harmonies, anyone know for sure? Rob h. Micky Gentile, Jennie Lee Lambert, and most importantly, arranger, George Andrews, worked out of New York. The Three Degrees were from Philadelphia, and lived there, and recorded there early in their careers. I'm not so well versed on the end of the '60s and the '70s as I am on the '50s and early and mid '60s, but I haven't heard of The Three Degrees doing background recording for other artists in NYC. Do you know for a fact that they did so? I would guess that local New York Area singers were used, as George Andrews worked out of NYC. I do know that Philly is rather close, and many artists commuted back and forth between the two cities. But the BG singers on this song are not so very distinctive that I can pinpoint them as The Three Degrees.
Soul Shaw Posted November 4, 2012 Posted November 4, 2012 " to the bitter end " was played regularly at wigan in the late 70s, it was one of dave evisons regular plays. "tell me you love me" wouldnt have got a play back in the wigan days but nowadays is a different story, brilliant track ,it has it all 1
