Spyder Turner - I Can't Take It Anymore

I picked this up the other day and think its a cracking track.

I quite like the other side aswell, although it is a bit more R&B than my usual Northern.

Can anyone recommend anything else by Spyder as worth trying to get hold of?

Cheers,

Dave

Think it's on a French EP, sure Carl Willingham used to play it off this.

I'm Alive... also exists on US 7". It's on a blue and gold label re-issue of I Can't Make It Anymore. This rerelease was presumably doneby MGM in the early or mid 70s to cash in on the Northern Soul interest in I Can't Make It, but must have sold abysmally as genuine originals of that track were as cheap and plentiful as rain from the sky. I don't think people had played I'm Alive at this point, its first major exposure coming several years later via Richard Searling playing the Stand By Me lp and French EP formats. This US re-issue is pretty rare, but I think a few members of this forum possess the record in this format. Spyder was a very versatile and talented vocalist, and to me he is pretty under-recorded. Did he do anything after his sets on Whitfield in the late 70s? Where is he now? I'd love to know.
