Guest dkd Posted June 18, 2006 Posted June 18, 2006 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
Chalky Posted June 18, 2006 Posted June 18, 2006 Most of his stuff... bit more expensive I'm A live With The Lovin Feeling and Got To Get Myself Together
Supercorsa Posted June 18, 2006 Posted June 18, 2006 You're Good Enough For Me is another good cheapie by Spyder Turner

Paul McKay Posted June 19, 2006 Posted June 19, 2006 If you don't mind a bit of 70s I'd recommend this: TURNER, SPYDER WHITFIELD 8526 I'VE BEEN WAITIN' / TOMORROW'S ONLY YESTERDAY
Marc Forrest Posted June 19, 2006 Posted June 19, 2006 If you don't mind a bit of 70s I'd recommend this: TURNER, SPYDER WHITFIELD 8526 I'VE BEEN WAITIN' / TOMORROW'S ONLY YESTERDAY And two great early ones "Calling Girls" on Master and "Ride in My 225" on Fortune, top man

Guest Soultown andy Posted June 20, 2006 Posted June 20, 2006 Yes it is on the french ep,i bought one for kev murphy for his birthday last year.
Guest Posted June 20, 2006 Posted June 20, 2006 Yes it is on the french ep,i bought one for kev murphy for his birthday last year. And Paul Harris has one for sale on his website https://www.freewebs.com/soul45s/index.htm Well, he did have when I had a browse yesterday
Garethx Posted June 20, 2006 Posted June 20, 2006 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.
Nick Hackett Posted June 20, 2006 Posted June 20, 2006 Cheers all,was just curious about availability on 45. Spyder Turner is a great artist,just listening to the Stand By Me album,youre right Gareth would be fantastic to hear him live..next cleggy/prestatyn!!
Guest ZTSC Posted June 20, 2006 Posted June 20, 2006 "Alive" is just typical Mike Theodore / Dennis Coffey stuff - Terra Shirma brilliance ! Love it ! Kev J
