Said song as always been in my top 10 oldies ever!

although, the 45 releases confuse me? How come the mix for the uk releases is different from the original USA smash mix,I personally prefer the later uk mix,sounds more accomplished,whereas the smash mix sounds  out of joint on the drum breaks!

and how come the uk mercury and stateside releases are like 3 or 4 years after the original USA release,makes it feel like a reissue?

Actually upon flicking through YouTube,it appears that the stateside and “Eric” mix is different from the USA and uk mercury release? But you can’t always trust YouTube!

The Prophets was the original recording on US Smash/ UK Mercury.

It was remade a few years later by Philly legend Bobby Martin and credited to the Creation. This was on US Eric records/UK Stateside.

I think both are great versions of this very Northern and exciting production.
