A great example of a class tune that a lot of people had for years and no one played, a crisp production that still stands up today (good old MGM) and nice to see it getting exposure these days.

I used to play this at sitc (old blue last days) & I'm sure that many would have played it in the small clubs around the country where cost wasn't the main factor in playlists, :lol: (which is probably why it was never a BIG sound - too common) yet another buy in the 70s from the marvelous Cheapos Cheapos market stall in Berwick Street :no:

I paid 5p for mine btw. :)

Yeah sorry mate wasn't having a pop or anything :lol: it's just one of the many great sounds that you can get away with mid-week that you would never hear out at a BIG do.

5p ??? :no: I knew i was being ripped off by either Croasdell/Clarkie or Rounce ....I would have paid at least 25p for mine ....gutted :g:

Any brave souls out there ever considered giving his "You never know" on MGM a spin out? Always was a fave of mine, from the moment I heard it on one of Roger Banks's lovingly put together tapes.

I know it's in the "too cheap to play" category, but what a tune from a man sadly remembered by many for his cod-reggae hits. The guy had skip loads more talent than these suggested IMHO. Johnny Nash revival anyone?

It's a classic 'I wish I could go back' story Dave - I worked in a small village record shop in 1980 and there was a rack with about 2000+ US sevens in it, 5p each or 25 for a quid - the stuff I got out of there (rolling forward 25 years) was ridiculous.

I just remember a lot of it being too 'rough sounding' for my youthful soulie ears at the time. :lol::D

Talking of Johnny Nash has anyone ever heard 'Falling in & out of love' played out at any time? I found a copy in my father in laws loft belonging to my wife. I remember the record when it was released but never heard it at any do's anywhere. Regards Ade

It was quite "big", indemand and receievd plays in Germany during the very early nineties along another very nice midtempo group mover on the very same label...whose title I just can`t remember now :huh:
