Steve Foran Posted December 13, 2018 Share Posted December 13, 2018 Afternoon all, a while back I was on You Tube and a record came up by Iris ? on MGM. The piccie was a Yellow MGM demo. I played it and liked it but I have never seen it since. I tend to you tube the rarer end of Northern so maybe something linked to my preference. I know it was Iris as that was my mums name but maybe I am wrong with the label but it was yellow that much I know. Can anyone help ID this from my scant description please? Thanks Steve Link to comment Social source share More sharing options...

I wouldn't even pay a fiver for it. A record Ian Levine would play as a northern soul holy grail on his podcast, it's that bad. but seeing how many are after it on Discogs I'm in a minority. So real problem seems to be my taste in soul music 6 Link to comment Social source share More sharing options...

Easy mistake to make mate, I think Iris might have been one of the Blossoms or possibly the Petals Link to comment Social source share More sharing options...
