ImberBoy Posted December 11, 2007 Posted December 11, 2007 Who Is Gonna Love Me - Alfie Davidson Who Is Gonna Love Me - Alfie Davidson, is this the "B" side to "Love Is A Serious Business"? Was "Who Is Gonna Love Me" ever played on the scene?? I can remember it but I think it was a "Disco" track and not on the Northernsoul scene? Not often right and I think I might be wrong again?? My wife caught me dancing to this an hour ago in my study, and said "You fookin divvie!" I remember getting caught dancing to "Heartache Souvenirs" by some young soldier when I was in the Army, I made them do star jumps for five minutes for laughing. LOL

John Al Posted December 11, 2007 Posted December 11, 2007 The Imperials did it first ....and better imho. Think it was b side of bootleg 12" which has fooled the unwary in search of the Mercury 12. Will be cheap but don't bother. John
Soulsmith Posted December 11, 2007 Posted December 11, 2007 Was cycling through the woods singing out loud along with my i-pod. Playing 'Janice' got to the line "I feel just like a wolf up in the hills........whoooo"" At that point I bumped into a couple of ramblers........
Sean Hampsey Posted December 11, 2007 Posted December 11, 2007 Alfie Davidson, is this the "B" side to "Love Is A Serious Business"? No, it's on an RCA 45. Steve's right. Imperials is the better version. Sean
Guest Posted December 11, 2007 Posted December 11, 2007 My mum once caught me!...... .........OH!...........DANCING?......
John Benson Posted December 11, 2007 Posted December 11, 2007 No, it's on an RCA 45. Steve's right. Imperials is the better version. Sean Agreed Sean - I have both versions and have to admit the Imperials is by far better!

bri pinch Posted December 13, 2007 Posted December 13, 2007 b side to love is...... knock on any door. just played it, not much kop . best, bri.
Gene-r Posted December 13, 2007 Posted December 13, 2007 The Imperials did it first and had a sizeable hit with it. Steve Thought it was composed by Alfie Davidson. Do you know if he wrote it for the Imperials, Steve? BTW, the "Who's Gonna Love Me" LP by the Imps on Power Exchange is also worth picking up, and shouldn't go for more than a few quid.
John Benson Posted December 13, 2007 Posted December 13, 2007 It's credited to Alfie on the RCA 45, but I've not been able to lay my hands on the Imperials 45 or LP to confirm it's the same on them. Maybe someone else can confirm this before I find my copies?
