Arthur Prysock I Was A Boy Acetate

[Shaun 1205]

Looking for a copy (or more info) of this acetate if anybody has any details.

 

If anybody has a complete mp3, this would also be nice (incomplete on Youtube).

 

For personal use only

 

Thanks

[Chalky]

Dave Thorley has the only copy known. It is uncredited if memory serves me correctly, Bell Sound Acetate.

When did you first start playing this Dave. I think it is a fantastic record and hearing stuff like this keeps the enthusiasm burning.

Bretby/Manchester Ritz period

Dave, I remember hounding you for a recording of this pretty soon after you had it, Eventually you put it up on the old refosoul I thank you for that.

 

I found it interesting that the wording had been rearranged - In Tony Orlandos case he was suggesting he was too young (I Was A Boy When You Needed A Man), but Arthur turned it around and the girl was to young (You Were A Girl When You Needed I Woman).

 

Cheers

Mick

Yep, I guessing that the acetate version came before the TO 45, they sound about 4-5 years apart.
