Geoff Posted February 25, 2015 Posted February 25, 2015 Love this, had so many copies but nobody ever seems interested I'm amazed no one was interested Pete. It always reminds me of the Dome, finally got a copy last year from Paul McKay.
Shelly74 Posted February 25, 2015 Posted February 25, 2015 big thanks to all posting ,some amazing records ,as someone said earlyer, think some are midtempo , not beat ballards but loving them all , as for the beat ballards , some known, lots not ,an amazing thread , need to start hunting again,keep posting all Thank you Vicky!! and yes some more midtempo than beat ballads, infact a couple I would personally say even more uptempo but by the amount putting links, it's obvious we all love girl groups x

Theothertosspot Posted March 7, 2015 Posted March 7, 2015 (edited) I love tunes like Sweets - "something about my baby" or Big Maybelle's "it's raining."[/size I'm sure people out there have tons of other great suggestions. I am looking to blow up my want list! thanks! We had to wait a while for The Sweet "Something etc" as the boot had instro as flip in favour which is what usually happened as instro's were also big in the 70's Edited March 7, 2015 by theothertosspot 1
