Love This Version

[Northern Soul Uk]

Just recieved a mint copy of 'Susan Maughan - That other place' through the post. What a fabulous version this is. Really pleased I found one, they seem to be getting quite scarce. I managed to pick this one up for £14 and I think it's worth every penny and more besides. I know it wasn't one of Susans big hits so not sure how many of this sold on it's release in 1964? 'That other place' is actually the 'B' side, with 'Little things mean a lot' on the 'A'. I spent around 2 months looking for a mint copy, so don't think it's that readily available.

Any thoughts on this fantastic female version of the 'Wade Flemmons' classic?

Thanks

I like it too, have got both versions, but don't think it's in same league as Wade Flemmons. I feel Susan Maughan's vocal is a bit forced, it would have been better if her delivery had been more laid back. Can't imagine it sold many on release.

Susan Maughan's version is excellent. Love the way the lyrics were 'sanitised' for the UK market (they used "Are you thinking of that other place...when you hold me in your arms", rather than the suggestive "what you been getting in that other place....that you ain't been getting here")!
