Thats the one..

A beat ballad can be as slow as you like as long as it's got some sort of - beat....

There's a really poor female version of this as well - can't remember who it's by.

Very early, almost doo wop Ted

Don't know why it would have been played off the album first, the single was never hard to find

No mate they had wingers in 1957 - we were champions of the world then...

There's going to be a new book dealing with pressings / bootlegs only. Each record gets a page to itself, colour scans of all variations. Sounds good to me.

Original version on ebay, not as good as JEP but not bad at all https://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/SUGAR-SIMONE-I-WANT-TO-KNOW-IS-IT-BECAUSE-RAINBOW-RAI-103-1966-/271100063485?pt=UK_Records&hash=item3f1ed2aefd

I apologise for closing/opening this topic but I said I'd reopen it if I had something relevant to add. I spoke to the man himself John Manship this morning about various matters, and mentioned this, the Kelly Garrett record and whether it was legit, licensed, bootleg or what. His answer? He didn't really know one way or another and said exactly the same as I did above - who actually does know everything about these records, how are we supposed to know who made them, where they made them and how they made them. His term repro meant the same as my term second issue did - it's not an original, which is all you need to know really.

Superb, thanks Gareth.

How can anyone describe this as a dirge? And Walter Jackson' "It's an uphill climb to the bottom" is way up there near the top of the list of all beat ballads

no think it was directly from ebay results

But even if you did this - set up a venue playing the music that YOU like, having guests with similar musical taste, playing great records, everyone having a good time - someone would be on here complaining that one of the records someone played was off a reissue and it affected his enjoyment of the night and it should be banned.

I think it has to be a "dancefloor certainty" no matter who's been on before you. I always used to start with The Dynamics "I need your love" (or if it was local / handbag type event, The Vibrations "Cause you're mine", never seen that record not get people dancing.)

I can't recall the green one but yeah it should be pale blue and white

That's fine if you've actually got a grand, what if you've only got £30?
