Hi Mel

Playgirl - Pat Hodges -

6697 refosoul

During one of my many trips to Soul Bowl, the day I bought stuff like "Gotta Be A False Alarm", "She's Puttin' You On" on Harthon.

This little beauty caught my attention, I instantly liked It & I bought It with the same expectations as the others.

Both Sides - Written By; Fred Smith - Arranged By; James Carmichael - Produced By; Bob Relf -

However, although It did find It's way on to a Goldmine CD, It never seemed to get the mention, that the others have..

I still like It, and think It should be played more. A nice record for the collection.
