John,

2 copies for sale on discogs - Yellow Atlantic - solid centre - don't know anymore than that, hence question

Steve

I'm almost sure the UK Atlantic copies are boots.

The track was always a Jewel recording that (if my memory ain't playing tricks on me), stayed in the vaults at the time. Paul Mooney used to visit the labels HQ to buy 45's & other stuff. He heard it, got them to press up some copies & sold them exclusively here in the UK. This is a good few years back but more like 1980 than 1968.

Sure this topic has been touched on here (& elsewhere) in the past.

I just looked up the Discogs entry. It says "UK Northern Soul reissue" but, looking at the label scans, it should rather say "UK Northern soul bootleg"
