It's not LP only, Pye single goes for anything from £25.00 to £45.00.

I have a spare if you're interested.

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

Strangely enough was asked on saturday night if I'd heard this.Told him that I'd got it on LP but was available on single.Missed out on one while ago.Will stick with LP.

Flip of major UK pop hit.

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

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 ), 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

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

[Guest WPaulVanDyk]

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.

[Ezzie Brown]

BLOODY HELL!!!EVEN I LIKE IT!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

[Platters 81]

is Jimmy J still doing the Working Mans Club circuit?...i know a friend saw him in Wales a few years ago and he was great......"Amen" had em standing on tables.....does he get bookings for Weekenders?.....he could do a great Northern flavour set +the Pye crossovers.....

[Harrogatesoul]

bloody hell another one this is soooooo good !!!!!!!

STILL can be found for a quid on ebay - STILL can be found at record fairs for a quid...Seem to remember someone tipping this / playing it out on a past thread.

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

[Platters 81]
