Dave Moore Posted February 5, 2009 Share Posted February 5, 2009 It's a fantastic slab of hard core New Orleans guitar plucking that always makes me nod approvingly, on my way to the dance-floor, when I hear it out. So much so that I re-purchased it a couple of weeks ago after selling it last year to raise funds for a want. Link to comment Social source share More sharing options...

Pete S Posted February 5, 2009 Share Posted February 5, 2009 Wasn't it an extra track added to an Aaron Neville album as a filler? Might be wrong. Old Cats and Wigan sound, sounds ten times better loud than it does at home though... Link to comment Social source share More sharing options...

Seano Posted February 9, 2009 Share Posted February 9, 2009 Nice one Steve, hope you find the Darryl Stewart too mate As Boba said about the flip side of the bootleg, "Bet you're surprised" is a lot like "Tell it like it is" in its opening, but make sure to give it a listen right through. Great track, especially the changes in key towards the end. I'm not sure now, thinking back to the distant past, but I know I got mine in a soul pack. Although I bought quite a few of 100, I seem to remember this one, along with Gwen Owens and a few others, being in a pack of 40 that I got from a guy in Godalming in Surrey - does that ring a bell with people?

Guest Darryl Posted April 3, 2009 Share Posted April 3, 2009 (edited) Hi Russ Will dig it out and PM ya tomorrow Cheers Steve Hi Steve. What Darryl Stewart are you looking for? I have a couple of copies of each and I may be able to provide you with what you're looking for. I have the second pressing of Name It And Claim It (spelled correctly) and a the Musicor release. I'm not sure what kind of shape they're in. And I'm not selling, I'm giving. I just need to check how many copies I have. You can send me an email or message to let me know if you're interested.
