i remember when Lou came into the radio room at Prestatyn, he started fiddling with all the control knobs on the mixer to get a better sound and at the time i wondered how the hell he knew on a strange set up he had never seen before what he was doing. I guess all the knowledge built up over the years never leaves you.

i would imagine that that happened due to good sales and a repress to meet demand as it was a hit .see below taken from song facts website In the UK, Smokey Robinson & the Miracles had a tough time finding an audience - "I Second That Emotion" made #27 in 1967, and a re-release of "The Tracks Of My Tears" hit #9 in 1969, but that was all they had for UK chart entries to that point. By 1970, their British distributor was so frustrated that he asked Karen Spreadbury, who was head of a Motown fan club in England, to pick a single from the Make It Happen album. She chose "The Tears of a Clown" - the last song on the album. The song was issued as a single in the UK and shot up the charts, rising to #1 in August, 1970. Motown took note and released the song in America a short time later, and in December it rose to #1 on the Hot 100, giving the group their first chart-topper.

Same great LP Kev Isle of sirens always loved it

Yep.

Just realized that the Demo and issue of Tmg 619 have different b sides,the demo has Stepping closer to your heart same as all other issues (US etc) but the issue has Since i've lost you which is great ! and its the only way to get it on 45 Why would they change the b side and has it happened on any other Tmg's https://www.discogs.com/Gladys-Knight-And-The-Pips-Everybody-Needs-Love/release/5977312 https://www.discogs.com/Gladys-Knight-And-The-Pips-Everybody-Needs-Love/release/8021605

I never touched my Adris

Bloody ell i was brainwashed and i thought i got into it all by myself

Would have thought it would be a motown single ie My Girl Temptations must have got a release in most countries producing 45s then reissued on yesteryear etc. then for the adverts and films it was in then on reverse of Stay 45

Her back catalogue is stunning !

Yes it was his daughter who sang it at Cleethorpes and very good it was too.

Excellent can't wait for the second part Well done!

that looks allot like This was actually the best of their SHITE

Just received mine and must say they are superb also got the new kent select singles ditto .We are blessed with all these previously unreleased tunes on vinyl, keep up the good work.!

Love them especially Hesitations and Turn Arounds

Was once at Earl of Donny years ago when Swaggy used to run it and invited our kid up from Oxford ,he was giong through Pat Brady's cheap box ( as anyone who knows our kid, is the first place he looks). He picked out about half a dozen and handed them to Pat to which Pat went through them and replied why are YOU buying these ? Because i want them was the reply. to which Pat said they must be too cheap i'm not selling them and put them under the counter.Much to our kids disgruntlement (We were very amused by this and never heard the end of it all night)

Perhaps in the interest of keeping the scene going we could all leave our records to a young fan or DJ when we pass on to the great soul heaven ?? Actually my daughter loves it when i buy records she calls them her inheritance and has asked me to leave her the copy of Manship's guide she bought me for Christmas. I have certainly had my monies worth out of the records i have bought over the years, but suppose when i retire they may come in handy as an investment.

Was it quickly withdrawn by Demon or am i thinking of another LP.

just one double A side for me Paul Williams Once you had a heart / Dennis Edwards When the light's go down on love there must be some great un-issued Willie Hutch sides too

Very sad news indeed ,he made some stunning music. R.I.P. Otis This one always does it for me

Played Once you had a heart as my "last track honest guv" and the last track at allnighter 0630 am in the morning and some guy came up and said why are you playing this shite ......! so it seems not everyone likes it he was a great talent with a great voice and wonderful at interpreting a song.

Just bought this after hearing on an old cd swap 12" vinyl
