Can anyone shed any light on this for me please.I was out with Fortnum and Spencer on Sat night and on the way home both Carl and Gary said about a certain dealer having this about 20 years ago on a red label.Neither Carl nor Gary could remember title other that it was "A Little Togetherness" with different lyrics.

Anyone please

The song by the Younghearts is a "Short" version - except for some (not all) boots which have the "Full" version.

I know both white and yellow Canterbury originals with the title "Little Togetherness" are the short versions, as is the Tempos artist variation, but I have recently found an identically labelled "Little Togetherness" and it was the Full version.

The Full version contains an extra full verse and chorus, along the lines of ..

Now you don't have to be, baby, A milionaire ... Just stick with me baby ... etc.

The Kings of Hearts is the Short version, and the New Younghearts on Soultown is the Full version (which I had previously thought was the first release of the long version).

Hope this helps.

Cheers

etc.

The Kings of Hearts is the Full version, but I can't remember if the New Younghearts on Soultown is.

Hope this helps.

Oh, see what you mean now, didn't read it properly.

No. I don't know of this - do we know who the "certain dealer" is? Maybe he can shed light

Mick,it was Dave Raistrick,although he has no recollection of the tune. Both Carl and Gary are adamant he had it on a red label.
