As he wrote and produced this and had 4 out of 5 of the records on Royal - Tone did he own the label? This has probably been discussed before but I can't find it any where. Gene Anderson - Baby I Dig You Great dance track John. Pete
Peter99 Posted September 30, 2017 Posted September 30, 2017 (edited) Just seen one of these in sales. I have the album and the 45 somewhere. I think I got the 45 as a real bargain from the states - many years after I bought the album. Can't remember who played this first but pretty certain that it was a big Clifton Hall spin. Bobby King - If You Don't Want My Love. Edited September 30, 2017 by Peter99

Bobby King - If You Don't Want My Love. Not that I was there but late Wigan biggie wasn't it? I just bought some really nice new expensive Bowers & Wilkins speakers recently and this one sounds the business on them (from the album) - unbelievably crisp production for the time. Also sounded fantastic at Mark Freeman's modern niter the other week 1

dthedrug Posted October 17, 2017 Author Posted October 17, 2017 Quote Hi All .....How pleased was I to see Friday Browns, 32nd Love Affair, FONTANA. up for auction on Manships, Like most of us who started collecting rare soul back at the start of the 7ts (not exclusively) we enjoyed the search for an exclusive find to brag about to mates, as with so many rare UK soul records, back then I always could find the label but not the record, for many years I searched for the issue of Fathers Angels "Bok to Bach" MGM with no success, in the end I paid Mick Smith £30 for a copy I took of a shelf at his house and refused to replace it insisting it belonged in my collection (I still rate it as one of the real rare records to own), anyway back to Friday Brown, John's write up is bang on, in my opinion this is one of the most overlooked UK 45s when you consider it is 2017 not 1977, please if you don't know this classic play it at least 3x to realise what John is saying about it, and why I put it up with the very best NORTHERN DANCE records, plus a great B side for future play. I rate this as a 5 star record, & one that only comes along, well never, it must be worth a bid? DAVE K. 2
