Try my mate Glen Belamy from Kettering as he's got the 45 for sale at £40 . . . worth a haggle! https://www.musicstack.com/item/13881342/ji...e/hey+girl-i+am

BEST THING HE EVER SANG IMHO.

BOUGHT THIS OFF EBAY 2YRS BACK FOR LESS THAN A DOLLAR FROM SOME "SHAG" SOULIE IN USA. THINK THEY PUT A LOT OF STUFF ONTO THEIR OWN LABELS :thumbsup:

Pye issue of Hey Girl in my box where it's been sat for a long long time :rolleyes:

Found in a mixed pile of 45's on a local flea market a few years ago.

Didn't like it when I first bought it, bought it blind (and deaf whistling.gif ), probably 3 records for a quid, and bunged it in a box I call my sh*t box! Tastes change though, doesn't sound too bad now :boxing:

It's lucky it survived a sh*t box clear out, gave my kids loads of 45's to cook in the oven! Wonder what I did let them cook that might sound good today :thumbsup:

Fantastic record, i have it in my box and always been a fan of Jimmy James who i have met and seen live 3 times who no doubt puts on a good show. Have 2 excellent Pye LP's. one refrence to the this single being on it, is actually US release and worth around £15.

A part from A Man Like Me, Another good Northern tune he did was Help Yourself which is faster.

Well i believe Jimmy James tours, he has been involved in soul and motown weekends and not so long ago did a few years touring as soul explosion tour with Clem Curtis (Foundations) and lead singer of Flirtations, which is what i saw 3 times.

His set included all 3 major UK single releases Now is the Time. Red Red Wine, I'll Go Where The Music Takes Me and A Man Like Me plus a few covers of old soul songs. I personally think he is great live and enjoyed it every time and any chance i get to see him again i will go
