Gointoagogo Posted May 30, 2017 Posted May 30, 2017 A lovely bit of blue eyed soul from Jack Moves. This is a very pleasant 2010 cover of the Ledgends original 1970? version on Red Balloon which is impossible to find. 1

I think it is LP only. Unlike some of the other great tracks on there which did escape onto 45's. One of my favourite girl groups.

Peter99 Posted May 30, 2017 Posted May 30, 2017 Don't generally post 60's stuff but I was really taken with this when I first started going to all niters in 1979 - it was a big, big record back then. Absolute stonker of a dance record with superb vocals, sax and horns. Lou Roberts and the Marks - You Fooled Me. Does it get played out today? 3

Cheers Martyn Never heard it till my time in the 80s Martyn so dont know the score but it would surprise me if it did get a Wigan Spin.The tempo and style was a step away from the traditional Northern sound an 80s vibe like so many stafford oldies that dont get accepted by todays scene.There is a fantastic clip on you tube of crazy Baz playing it out at a venue in the 80s ill see if i can track it down.
