The one you mention was also done by 'Northern Soul Inc.' (or something like that) in the 70's. Link to comment Social source share More sharing options...

The one you mention was also done by 'Northern Soul Inc.' (or something like that) in the 70's. I was just gonna say that! - on Polydor wasn't it? absolutely horrid version. As for My Eyes... was that on the flip of the US MGM issue of Something Keeps Calling or were they two seperate issues? Link to comment Social source share More sharing options...
