bugga, did I miss a treat, I was on afternoon shift doh!!!! nice one sir

how about the Betty Willis version? its more heart wrenching, soulful, & a bloody slight cheaper lol

Me Mark, cos I still play it out occasionally

I like it, think i'll get it out & give it a spin & have happy memories from the 1st time I heard it

Big Al played it at Pure soul when we were upstairs at the Crown

Oh no, Tony will now be with Jonah, How very sad, I'm in shock R.I.P to a legend

& one I wish I'd have held on too as well

Yep I back Pete, cos back in the day I got quite a few records from him

Just booked an appointment to spec savers, I think I've gone a tad blind

looks more like an emi-disc than an acetate ?, I could be wrong

Hiya Chalky, you maybe right, cos Dean Anderson covered Shirley Edwards up as Argie & the Arkettes & that must have been in the mid 80s (IMHO)

Bravo, that's why we set Pure soul up in a small venue cos we know it'll never be packed to the rafters, however we do get a small hard core following, grumpy soul looks the real deal too

Thanks Rob, & yep it was a good night

i played this one at pure soul a few months back

Some great tunes here , in fact not too many that doesn't get played at Pure soul, take for instance the blendells, I played this one on a one off Acetate lol Keep up the good work with keeping the soul scene real

thanks for the like Russ, Grant ,Rob & Brianc
