Bobby McClure - You Bring Out The Love In Me - Island

Would love to know how this great Chicago artist ended up as a UK b-side to a white group, no credits printed on the label to go off. Same backing as Love Affair on U.A.

Could be wrong,but I’m sure I’ve seen this on another label,maybe a foreign label with a big hole?

This is a good one, but its kinda mix of loads of tracks, but independantly written by Biddu Appaiah. Bit of Four Tops, and I hear the same arrangment as Billy Ocean, different lyrics.. and he even used 'Build me up Buttercup' at one point, it's more like a 'Pastiche' then anything else... but UK released...

Jimmy James - A Man Like Me

God dam your hard Dobber! lol

OK, from the big list above, I checked, most came out else where, stand by Keith & Billie - Taste Sour Don't It / Picadilly, although Penned by Jimmy Radcliff over there, it only ever got a release in the UK, as far as I can see.

Until of course his son Chris Radcliffe cut those acetates, well over a decade ago...BIG man obviously did release it last year of course, but not their version.

Nice one, had to seek out Pet Clark and The Undertakers as I didn't know those. Yes, Petula very similar to Holly St.James. Undertakers on album/CD only and a great blue-eyed version of 'I Wanna Be (your Everything)'.

That Jimmy James (Hungary EP) plays a totally (poorer) different take of "I feel alright" than UK Piccadilly. The jamaican release can not say which take does play.

I just got to say I love this:

 

Laurel Aitken - Sweet precious love (UK Rainbow)

 

UK only as far as I know unless a jamaican issue do exist which I doubt. UK production yes, but it's Soul in my book.
