Had Edward Hamilton - 'Now You have To Cry Alone' on Lanrod for years, only flipped it the other day, wow! ' I Love You So'...great mid-tempo tune! My mate actually preffered that side.

Discovered the super-classic Marlena Shaw "Wade In The Water" has a brilliant flip: "Show Time"... Try it...

Peggy Gaines Sweet way of living - Reforee - great crossover tune at only 1min 31secs, what's going on there then? Did they run out of ideas, words, time, money. Such a good tune but hardly seems an in-justice at 1min 31secs!!!

FLIP IT - Just to satisfy my baby- KILLER TUNE and 1 min 11secs longer!!!!

As i was typing this came on my jukebox - Jimmy Ruffin - I'll never let you get away - Tamla Motown TMG922 the flip side of Farewel is a lonely sound. I remember reading about his some time ago and thinking I'm sure I've got that somewhere. Dug it out, played and said aloud Holy Sheet.

Ye Gods, I played "Why Weren't You There" out over 30 years ago... and I'm sure I wasn't the first!

IMO by far the classier side.

Some great stuff found on the back of 'Northern' classics e.g. flip over Bob Relf "Blowing My Mind" for a stunning slab of Soul in "Girl, You're My Kind Of Wonderful".

Again (IMO) much the better side!

Amazing!

I've mentioned it on here before... but flipping over "Brokenhearted" in the late 60's and finding "Baby I've Got It" on the 'B' side is what got me into all of this!

Classic.

I'm still having orgasms about The secrets "hear I am"

Btw has anyone played the other side of Just like the wheather recently

Nick Hackett · October 14, 2007

JOHNNY MOORE..ITS JUST MY WAY OF LOVING YOU/walk like a man.

John Benson · October 14, 2007

JOHNNY MOORE..ITS JUST MY WAY OF LOVING YOU/walk like a man.

I'm sure that Sean Hampsey will remember all those years back when we were discussing this very song - and also another good version by that man Tyrone Davis :thumbup:

It's the flip side to "Could I forget you" on Dakar btw...

Also done by Garland Green on Cotillion

Both were done in 1971, but Johnny's was done first around 1967 :thumbsup:

Remember it well John.

(Anything we've not talked about in the last 30 odd years?)

Cracking record... by all three great artists!

:thumbsup:

always rated flip to Epitome of Sounds 'You Dont Love Me' - i.e. Where Were You, actually played this out one nite when djing by mistake and got asked by a dozen people what it was

I was just about to post about this but you beat me to it !

Had the record about 3 years before I tried the flip "Where Were You". Absolute quality :yes: now prefer it to the A side although that's an all time classic.

Heard it played out recently and sounds great.

Emjaygee · October 16, 2007

Funny co-incidence that.....I've just completed a CD for myself that i called "the pyramid set" basically you get 15 great tunes with a good if not great flip and arrange them by playing through them on one side then flipping them over and playing back through them in the opposite direction.

The theory is that if you wrote down the artists from the bottom up you can arrange each track title on either side a bit like a pyramid.

Thus:

Thus:

Title 1 - Artist 15 - Title 2

Title 1 -------Artist 14-------Title 2

Title 1 -----------Artist 13-----------Title 2 etc

I could have called it a set of 15 records played in order then flipped over and played back, but that sounded stupid :yes:

It's quite hard to get some kind of flow through a set of songs ith that restriction.

I'll post the list up tonite when i gets home from work.
