Guest Trevski Posted June 4, 2008 Posted June 4, 2008 (edited) Cody Michaels, female version. There is a male vocal using the same backing track, with different lyrics, cant remember who it is tho! A well known artist "If I can't have you" might be the title? It is certainly the first line! Edited June 4, 2008 by Trevski
Chalky Posted June 4, 2008 Posted June 4, 2008 There is a male vocal using the same backing track, cant remember who it is tho! "If I can't have you" might be the title? It's Michael Christian - If I Can't Have You - Concept. Pat Brady's old Nolan Chance cover up from the mid 80's. It is in Refosoul as I've posted it, look for Nolan Chance. Tried to copy the link but was having none of it

Cheers Chalky, learn something new every day!

Rich Oops ; Hands up in admittance mode to dropping a testie ........ I have had an " intimate " listen to CM again via a sound clip on t'internet , as opposed to hearing it through speakers at a venue ( and that has not been since the old king died ) ....... What strikes me on this listening of " SD , FTW " , is that it carries the same backing track as Liza Mae's " I've Got a Juicy Mouth Baby " on Concept ........ So what is the connection between the two ? Malc Burton Edited June 4, 2008 by Malc Burton
Guest woznotwos Posted June 4, 2008 Posted June 4, 2008 thanks guys, thats brill of you !! haunted me for ages!! now to get the vinyl ,lol,all best wozza
Gene-r Posted June 4, 2008 Posted June 4, 2008 No real connection between the three tracks, other than they all use the same backing tracks. Liza Mae's "I've Got A Juicy Mouth Baby" is the B-side of "The Watergate Jazz". Judging by the A-side title, I would date the Concept 45s at between 1972 - 1974 (to tie up with the Watergate Scandal), giving a difference of 6 to 8 years between Cody Michaels and the Concept outings. There is also a FOURTH single with the same backing track: "Up Until The Night Time Comes" by Liza Mae, also on Concept.

Jasonofa Posted January 15, 2010 Posted January 15, 2010 Does anybody else know the Jan Snow song with the same backing, also on Concept--called "Someday I'll Land"? Can't find out much about this one, seems kinda crazy there are 5 songs with the same backing track! Thanks!
Coops Posted January 16, 2010 Posted January 16, 2010 there is another 7 days 52 weeks by a male artist, think it's on rca? not sure, a bit poppish (as with cody) can't remember the artist but caveman pete watkins picked it up from raistrick earlier this year, it's the only copy i and others have heard of.
Pete S Posted January 16, 2010 Posted January 16, 2010 What strikes me on this listening of " SD , FTW " , is that it carries the same backing track as Liza Mae's " I've Got a Juicy Mouth Baby " on Concept ........ So what is the connection between the two ? They share the same backing track.
Rich Buckley Posted January 16, 2010 Posted January 16, 2010 This thread has amused me as I've just started transferring all my old tapes onto my pc. One of them was a Gary Spencer tape from 92ish that had this covered up ( I didn't know the real artist) as well as Athens Rogues, Bill Bush and Junior McCants and others all covered up. Will post up when back next week as I still don't know all of them! Soul Brothers Six c/up was one I remember "Baby's Comin' Home" - any ideas?! Rich
Mike Posted January 16, 2010 Posted January 16, 2010 seen this pop up a few times over years so using the lightening fast refosoul live search ( ) got three of the ones discussed LISA MAY - IVE GOT A JUICY MOUTH BABY - MICHAEL CHRISTIAN - IF I CAN'T HAVE YOU - CONCEPT - CODY MICHAELS - 7 DAYS 52 WEEKS - anyone throw up the other two mentioned ?

IDOLS - CHECK HER OUT - USA - That's the one Chalky, nice one! Price? Will post up the track listing when back home next week. Others on it included Shirley Edwards, Hayes Cotton (Claire) etc. Ace tape even if it'd been put together today! Rich
Mick Holdsworth Posted January 16, 2010 Posted January 16, 2010 Christ how bad is that! I did warn you ..
Guest woznotwos Posted April 25, 2010 Posted April 25, 2010 I did warn you .. jEEZ MISSED MICHAEL CHRISTIAN LAST YEAR ON EBAY LOST OUT TO ONE BIDDER . GUTTED!!!!!THAT WENT FOR A HEFTY AMOUNT AND WAS ONLY VG COND !!!
Garethx Posted April 25, 2010 Posted April 25, 2010 Concept was a strange label. Don't know for sure but it possibly has a connection to the people behind Merben. To me each use of the Cody Michaels backing track is poor and the kind of thing that gives Northern Soul a bad name to outsiders but I am a fan of the Richie Cee 45 on the label "Games Too Cold Blues", which is a wonderfully orchestrated Philly ballad. Mr Cee himself isn't the greatest singer in the world (like his labelmates) and there are distinctly dodgy vocal moments but the overall effect is tremendous. I think deep soul aficionados Pat Biggerstaff or Les Fisher have posted it in Refosoul in the past.
Guest Trevski Posted April 26, 2010 Posted April 26, 2010 (edited) There is, of course, another version, not yet mentioned! Big spin for Russ, If I remember correctly Edited April 26, 2010 by Trevski
Md Records Posted April 26, 2010 Posted April 26, 2010 I have yet another version of this on another Philly label by James T. Biggs, with yet another set of completely different words. Des Parker
