That's probably what I'm thinking of. Sometimes my brain works faster/slower than it should. Hi Jez I have a copy of the sight and Sound record which is an interesting version though I know nothing of the band or any of the members. Couldn't replace the Detroit ones though.

Jez Jones Posted December 19, 2008 Author Share Posted December 19, 2008 (edited) Yes mate I haven't a clue about the sight and sound band meslf. Possibly a Liverpool group from the mid 60's but don't quote me on it On the OTDTYH thingy--i was always a Darrell or Jackie fan--and had forgotten about Doni Burdick, but listening to Na Allen and especially the Little Willie G versions they run them pretty close tell yer what Kev ,if all those posted are correct then 20 different versions of it must be some sort of record(scuse the pun) for a northern track Although someone is bound to come up with something to beat it Edited December 19, 2008 by jez jones Link to comment Social source share More sharing options...

By the way on the CD R&B of Donnie Elbert in the sleeve notes it does say that he wrote OTDTYH as well as Somebody Somewhere Needs You. Don't know if it's right or not.?????
