At the time this particular song was recorded at was only fifteen years old. The group which consisted of myself and my two best friends Debra and D.J. recorded two other songs "Wise Up Girl" and "Groovin' with my thing". I thank you for bringing back so many wonderful memories for me. Again thanks for the memories!!!! It also had her email address which I've deleted 'Someone to treat me' is also a class record which went down well when i played it....... 5 Link to comment Social source share More sharing options...

I remember Robbie Vincent at the time getting behind "You can't go home no more", but I've never heard it played out. Maybe that it was on Blue Note meant that it didn't get picked up so much in soul circles. Lou's remake of "Family reunion" would sound great played out, all classic Philly strings and things, really unusual quality for 1987. 1 Link to comment Social source share More sharing options...

The Bluenote album that it is on is pretty awful too apart from this track. It did get a 7" release too but only in Australia on the Capitol label but it must be pretty scarce as the only copy I have ever seen is the one I was lucky enough to buy. There is also an edited shorter version on the flip without the long drawn out intro. Looks bloody nice too as do most Aussie releases. Also agree r/e the Family Reunion remake.

Popular Post Eddiefoster Posted December 14, 2017 Popular Post Share Posted December 14, 2017 Without opening a cynical angle to the thread; the answer in many cases to "How the hell is this not massive" may simply be "Coz as most of the examples aren't rare/exclusive/expensive enough" ..........NOT a reason as far as I'm concerned but sadly true for some DJs. And of course if they don't get airtime they won't get know and loved. You don't know what you don't know This is right up there with any of them; play it right next to Walter & the Admirations or the Mello Souls etc. and it stands up perfectly well; (my opinion obviously!)

Guest Gogs Posted December 15, 2017 Share Posted December 15, 2017 Just reading through this thread shows how much stuff is out the waiting to get played, even i as a part time dj try to introduce new stuff (depending on venue, can't get away with it at an oldies only night but i do try at my very few across the board nights). I don't know if this has made it yet but this is one that i am going to be playing when i get the chance. Link to comment Social source share More sharing options...
