Love all their Carnival Material, but very much like their Deluxe Records tracks, especially 'Give Him Up' as it was the first record that I identified as 'Sweet' and that record sent me in to collecting seventies in a big way...

From my last 'love find' on the cheaper end with 'From Atlanta To Goodbye' on De Luxe (too long overlooked by stupid me) to my very first love found late teen summertime memories with 'Baby I'm Sorry'... Then I'll leave the 3 in between with 'Call Somebody Please', 'I Bet'Cha (Coldn't Love Me)' and 'All I Need Is Your Love' all on Carnival.

there will be loads of tracks by them I still need to hear but these 2 caught my ear

 

I love this too, i've played it at Yarmouth weekender. 

There's also an x rated intro

My favourite by them is their last recording on Carnival, a hard one to find.

Manhattans - Til You Come Back To Me - Carnival

My fave group has always been the Impressions (unless its the Dells on a certain day) ... so when I picked up a UK copy of "That New Girl" around 1969 and loved it from day 1. Of course, it's not really them singing their own sound, so I also like lots of their 70's CBS stuff. But "That New Girl" has a special place in my heart.
