What's that track on the Alfreton Soul Club website?

Tune is familiar, but artist and title escapes me.

Make it plain. If you would be so kind.

originally covered as Patti J and the contacts............. if my memory hasn't failed me.

Derek Allen used to spin this at Alfreton.

several hundred.........i think. I'm pretty sure I saw one on Ebay in the last 12 months that went for 1,200 ish can't remember if that was $ or £

I'm sure someone else on here will be able to tell us a more acccurate price.
