Sounding very darkly Detroit to my ears, flip the effervescent Try A lttle Harder for the Fi-Dels

Bob Refl composition You Never Do Right (My Baby), Keymen/Jay Boy UK.

I didn't realise that some of these Jay Boy's have become quite expensive - after 40 years I still find it hard to take

the label seriously, though all credit to President for knocking the tunes out.

Yep know what you mean i did say it was a marmite track but it does have a following in some circles and its quite a rare record too.Let me address the balance and put up for you one of thr most soulful tunes ever played on the Northern scene and one safely resting in my box

I totally agree, I played this at Walsall record fair to Mick Smith & Roy Gelder (top UK Collector) 15 years ago & asked them to name the 45 no problem for Mick but Roy was like a double take brother with it, I bet that you play it at most soul nights & only a very small number will get it right. great group great Soul. NICEONE.

I don't like marmite, but love this.

Sunshine pop it may be, but it's got the groove.

Nice one.

deserves to be absolutely massive, but seems to be around in too much quantity at the moment, guess they'll all dry up someday, we'll realise there were only a few hundred of the stock, and then everyone will want one.

Agreed mate i got mine about 5 years ago and its deffo one i would not part with. Its also availlable as David Morris on the Radnor label, exactly same tune so its not too hard to find at least one of the two releases.

Been taking an interest in UK Jay Boy releases of late.

Found this one interesting as I can't see any reference to a US release.

As I understand it was recorded in UK, possibly the same group who were also touring UK clubs under

various group banners during the late 60's. I believe that it's one of the rarer releases on the label.

Quite a few threads on here about Jay Boy, here's one if anyone's interested:

I've always thought it's a descent dancer but have thought it's always well over priced  when I've seen it,on occasions seen it for 3 figures....what's that all about????If I saw one for £20/30 I'd probably give my piggie bank a rattle to see it there was any pennies for it :D

Must admit never seen an issue?

Has it had plays at any time?

Agree with your comments mate.Think the issue is rare and i have seen it for sale at £200.which is far too much in my opinion.It has the Stafford flavour but im not sure it ever got spins there.The flip is a nice beat ballad.

HI ALL I picked this tune up at the STABLES SOUL CLUB WOLVES on Satutday night, I don't know if it has been played much, however I like it as I do for most JA-SOUL, value at the moment £15-£30 well worth that if unknown?

Know what you mean - just a bit loose I think, reminds me of Claude Huey 'Drifting' or Ozz & Sperlings 'Qualify', maybe not in that class but a cool tune all the same
