B side is Love One Another which I'm not sure I recognise from title alone. I've had a couple of Uniques on Island, remember having People Rocksteady which on the label was credited to Roy Shirley I think, Never Let Me Go, I think thats all I had even when I was collecting Island. The one I really want is Gypsy Woman, I think John Manship might have it on his site for something like 200 quid. Also their version of the Platters "See no evil" is great. I think "Out of love" aka The One Who Love Forgot (came out on Trojan) is the best of the lot except I've already posted it up a dozen times

Sort of, it's a semi-blank - has the proper label but all credits left blank. I'll send it you tuesday, you might have to give me a nudge to remind me, not mint but it's done me for the last 8 yearsor so..
-
Great to listen to but maybe a bit hard to dance to this stuff Rod? Would you like my Jamaican 45 as an easter gift now that I don't need it?
-
I was thinking, this kind of made the top 20 back in 1972/73 - they used it as the backing track for Judge Dread's "Big Seven" single, which may be why it always seems slightly familiar even to those who don't recall hearing it before.

If I could, you know I would!
-
That red and white Island label, although being so basic and boring, it actually makes me excited just looking at it, I know that aounds bizarre - maybe like when poeple see a Shrine label or something...
-
n.b. that sound clip is a different take to the 45, totally different backing vocals on the sound clip. Will try and find the original.

I first heard this track down our local fair, on the waltzers, and I loved it straight away, always loved it, but never been able to get a copy (apart from on a reissue). Every time I've seen one, and there haven't been many occasions to be honest, I've missed out on it. I see one ending on ebay today so I thought sod it, I'm going to win this, so I placed a snipe bid of £250 on it, which is more than I've ever paid for a reggae 45 before, anyway, it came in at £51! Absolutely over the moon, I think that is my longest ever want finally filled. Sound clip to link below /Slim-Sm...tio-t66339.html

I've only ever had 2 copies to be honest...I never even saw one til the late 80's
-
Satiron is a boot, so to speak - there was never an official 60's release, this was a 70's press by Soul Bowl given to dj's
-
Bruce Cloud I believe
-
Not at all Ady, I don't know anything about it apart from when I had the Sales Pitch record, people mentioned it was a popcorn tune, so that was my one and only suggestion. No problem, thanks for the apology, all the best.
-
Amazed to see that this came out on British!
-
Ady - talk about misunderstanding a post! The record is called Sales Pitch, it's by Tommy T or similar, and has the same backing as the Bruce Cloud record. The rhythm in the background features a typewriter clicking away. This was my serious suggestion for a track on the compilation, which you asked for. What's your problem?
-
Which, if you read my post, is what I just said!
-
Just can't understand how anyone can say this is awful. It's a fantastic record. It may not have any soul content but as a 'pop record' it's wonderful and should have made the top 10 in the pop charts. Can understand you not wanting to hear it at a Northern Soul venue, though I love it/loved it, as did all our lot, I'd play it now if I had some protetctive clothing. Also Paul, you missed the best 2 years of Wigan if you didn't go back after 1975.
-
I think some people didn't quite read the question properly, it's about records you used to hate but like now. Mine is Sam Williams - Love slipped through my fingers. When this was first played I thought it sounded terrible, the intro and backing vocals always sounded out of tune. They still do, but I hadn't listened to the vocal properly back then. It only had a short lifespan as it came out on Grapevine, I really listened to it properly maybe 2 years later and loved it ever since, especially the Grapevine single which is 20 seconds longer than any other version
-
I like that record with the typewriter clicking throughout. Forgot what it's called. "Sales Pitch", that's it. Forgot who it's by. Never mind, ignore this.
-
Old Searling spin. Bet you haven't listened to it for a while not a patch on Samantha Jones. If you can't find it I'll post it up.
-
Was going to say, don't show that list to Mick Smith as he'll say a good third of those records were discovered by him and his southern pals
-
No such thing...Buddah demos same as Mojo demos, sticker with date on. Not sure if theres a demo of the multicoloured issue of Move On Up.
-
Well it's a change from a poster of a woman tennis player scratching her arse I suppose
-
Yes. It was a wall. They usually are.
-
I'll get that for my toilet
-
Found this at my local garden centre of all places. I think it's to decorate whole walls, fences etc at parties, but you could use it just to cover up a very boring wall like I did. It was onl 2.49. Not saying it's a life essential or anything, just that it's quite nice. And it's 50 feet long! "Scene Setters Room Roll" apolgies for photos, couldn't get one without bad reflection
