Soul in the Sun Tommy Hunt

Hello, I am chasing my own tail trying to find the first release date of the above track....keep finding the reissue for Loughborough in 2010, but I must be being a bit thick as can't even find in his Discography...was it never pressed before this date? Just wanting the year if possible please?

Many thanks

It sounds as if it was penned around 2010, like the embarrassing Judy Street's "Northern Soul".

Ok cheers,  just for a painting title, but needed the year.

If that's the Champion thing, then it goes back to summer 2007 (at least that's when you could get the sound files off the net). I think the record was the same time, or very soon after.

Must have been a bigger gap between recording and release than I thought. Definately around as an mp3 in 2007, just took 3 years to put out a single.
