Don't like either and that male version is the musical version of diahorrea

Correct Geoff

Yeah thats horrible but lets be fair, it's not really Dena Barnes, does anyone actually know who it is?

RIP Steve. Tragic.

Australia. But is it legit, those things are damn easy to fake

No it's by Noel & The Fireballs a version of I Can't Turn You Loose, the guy doesn't know the words so he's just grunting and saying Gotta Gotta

I defy anyone to keep a straight face while listening to this record, this is the worst vocal ever and he even forgets the words after half a minute. backing is great though. Sit back and enjoy.

If anyone wants my copy of this it's up for offers

Bugger, I just typed it all out

It has no title, red vinyl, normal 12" sleeve, 7 tracks on side one, four tracks on side two. * instrumentals Tony Hester - I'll be your champion Buena Vistas* - Go Go (similar to You Better Go Go) Motor City Sound* - Shake Me Wake Me (uptempo inst) Denise & The Devotions - Shy Guy Stewart Ames - Angelina Popcorn & The Soul Hawks* - Say it isn't so (with strings) JJ Barnes - Hole in the wall (good dancer) Eric & The Vikings - Hurtin (backing track from Sweet Darling) Willie Jones - MY baby ain't no plaything Detroit Strings* - In the pocket (similar to Our Love) Stewart Ames - King for a day side one 33rpm side two 45rpm

They should have made it one sided...just side one

Kool Kat was a legit Neil Rushton release

Sacrilige!

Course it is, but people seem to think it's worth something for some reason

Don't pay more than £20 for a UK copy

No it's worth about £4!

God no, they're great records

Was it "find the worst instrumental ever" night? Thats why Champion wasn't played

The vinyl boot also has little spots in the run off groove

Thats where they came from

They must have had at least 1000 copies of Right Track inst I reckon.

Southend Soul

Surely the time to sort this out was in the months after it happened, not 4 years later?
