Ha, I know there is an L.P track by Paul Jones (Manfred lead singer)  that is quite good (crossover type thing) but that 45....no, no, no, no, no!!!

With the plethora of unsuitable records that have been played out over the years-why not!

Expect to hear it at a Casino clone all nighter soon!

Some aspiring DJ might buy it and spin it believing he's breaking a new tune. 

All those asking for DJ's to break new tunes might need to be careful what they wish for

Know what you mean.I bought a Northern/ Iraqi funk / death metal / popcorn / Soul / jazzfunk / punk / Wigan classic, - it was none of those.

[Tobytyke]

What about "Invitation" Played a lot on the scene by a group that became Manfred Mann.? So we might be getting close!

ha! ive seen them almost that bad. id love to hear some iraqi death metal punk funk

what annoys me if when you get a tune billed as soul that looks proper obscure and its a country record. or funk and it turns out its a rock tune is another fave. 

[Guest Matt Male]

They covered Maxine Brown's Oh No Not My Baby, and the Shirelles' Sha La La, so the seller might think they are a soul group.

and of course Come Tomorrow is a cover version of a soul tune..Marie Knight i think .Persionally  think it's a great tune,,whatever genre it's it is...or in this case isn't

Mike D'Abo was the lead singer on Invitation..and he joined the Manfreds shortly after

Invitation - 'Band Of Angels'.

I like some of Manfred Mann's early stuff '64/65 when they had a bit of a Mod sound.  Later stuff like 'Pretty Flamingo' was a great tune.

some deluded souls think Dolly Parton is northern soul so anything is possible.

Always thought this rare EP only track by Paul Jones had something of a NS sound...from the poppy end of NS obviously but still a pretty good track...
