3 questions for the mentioned 45

1. which was released first

2. are they the same group,the 2 groups sounds similar

3. are these 2 the only versions, or is there others (apart from the nursery rhyme)

Posted

What labels were each on?

Parisians - Demon Hot

traditions - Abet

Posted (edited)

Parisians is on Demon Hot and Traditions are on A-bet.  

 

I had several conversations with Paul Tefzeger about the Traditions and his other groups, Ditalians being one.  But I need to find them.  The Traditions on Barclay are a white group, the ones on A-Bet do sound black but I'm not 100% and Paul couldn't remember much.

Traditions is by far the better version, much cleaner recording and better arrangement. 

Problem is it's ten times rarer than the Demon Hot 45.

At the end of the day it's still a bloody nursery rhyme.

It's not though is it, they just use a line from the nursery rhyme, which makes sense as an adult sentence anyway, as a metaphor for a lonely girl.

prefer parisians, more balls.

Agreed!

I like The Tradition´s version, but definitely prefer The Parisians´one...

 Much rawer and more intense, he really sings with feeling with that rough voice.

Tim Browns quote from Traditions current auction "A superior re-take of The Parisians record on Demon Hot has a much clearer (and better) mix of the track on A-Bet which was then renamed as the group became The Traditions. Very rare (much rarer than the Demon Hot release) and only to be found on stock issue copies as the promo features 'Ruby Tuesday' on both sides."
