The Phantom Janitor Posted March 18, 2014 Posted March 18, 2014 There seems to be 2 versions of this, one an inferior garage version, as I don't want to get caught out has anybody anymore information on this record. Cheers, Mark.
Guest Posted March 30, 2014 Posted March 30, 2014 Wasn't aware of two versions...even the one Pat Brady used to play is fairly garage-y...and looks like this:
Peter99 Posted March 30, 2014 Posted March 30, 2014 I'm not sure about garagey. Garbagy more like. Peter
Wiganer1 Posted March 30, 2014 Posted March 30, 2014 covered as the salvadors by pat brady - i won pats copy from ebay about ten years ago....never seen another copy...
The Phantom Janitor Posted March 30, 2014 Author Posted March 30, 2014 (edited) Wasn't aware of two versions...even the one Pat Brady used to play is fairly garage-y...and looks like this: I've been looking for this record for about thirty years and found a copy for sale at www.thegarage.de if you go on the site you can listen to the record then compare it to the one YouTube, the one on the garage website doesn't seem to have the same vocals or backing vocals and seems slower, the one on you tube is the one that they use to play at Allnighters. Thanks for the reply. Mark. Edited March 30, 2014 by The Phantom Janitor
The Phantom Janitor Posted March 30, 2014 Author Posted March 30, 2014 covered as the salvadors by pat brady - i won pats copy from ebay about ten years ago....never seen another copy... This is the only one I've ever seen for sale on the www.thegarage.de web site, luckily they had a sound file otherwise it could of been an expensive mistake. cheers, Mark

The Phantom Janitor Posted March 30, 2014 Author Posted March 30, 2014 defo a differnce as u say....even keb has been after my copy - personally i like it... You wouldn't believe such a rare record on a small label could have two versions, the strange world of Northern Soul ! I recently bought quiet as it's kept, Lee Andrews on lost nite, which is different to the RCA version, and back in the 80s I bought David and Ruben on Warner supposed to be the same as the Majestics but it has the intro missing, I was a gutted when I first played it, so now I've got both versions, keep hold of your TR5 it's a great record, if you DJ anywhere you'll have to let me know it would be good to hear it again at a soul night.

Guest artcab Posted April 2, 2014 Posted April 2, 2014 Hi guys New to the forum. I'm located in suburban Philadelphia. I was researching a 45 we owned as kids by a band called the TR5. My recollection (confirmed by my older brother, as I was only 7 years old or so when this was released) is that our neighbor down the street, Lloyd Theirolf, was part of this band. His name appears on the label under the song title. I found this forum with a little googling. I also have a vague recollection of the 45 coming in a white liner sleeve, with a black and white picture of the band printed on it. Sorry I can't offer more - I just remember as a kid being very impressed that we had a "celebrity" on the street! ;-) I think the song got some local airplay on the Philadelphia AM radio stations - call letters for the two competing pop stations at the time were WFIL (560 on the AM dial) and WIBG. I'm pretty sure the band couldn't quit their day jobs ;-) John
