Sammy Hawkins - Standing On The Sidelines

[Chalky]

Is this track Sammy Hawkins?  It is the same record and same backing etc but the vocal sounds slightly different to these ears, not as sharp.  Is it just the source material, this is from a tape, I presume the youtube clip is from vinyl?

And does anyone know the second track, sorry it is so brief.

I remember Stevie Z in Greatstone saying he had both versions and there was no way to tell by looking at the record.

i can't recall whether he was talking about demo or issue - I've had quite a few demos and only 2 issues and all of them played the YouTube version (which IMHO is the superior one)

wonder if records of this ilk will ever get played out again?

Ao my ears are working ok, they are different takes   but the same artist?

 

It was covered up as Lewis Clark by Saus back in the early to mid 90's.
