You know how it is ...some tracks grab you by the throat at first hearing, others take a few plays to worm their way into your brain.
Then again there are a few tracks that all your mates love but leave you just cold........then years later the penny drops for you and you love it.
Me? well I've just discovered Gwen Owens wanted and needed . I know I know how sad of me because it is great detroit northern; a classic.
But in the 70's when first played on the northern scene this record just left me cold I dont quite know why. Then 6 months ago I found a copy (boot unfortunately) in the loft and have been playing it ever since.
So what records have been sleepers in your house? Not the ones you still dislike but those that have converted you after a few years. And I don't mean that obscure 60's group sound your mate reckons is a monster but everyone else thinks is pants, but those classic tracks.

Fast forward to today and I wonder what all the fuss was about - don't get me wrong I
