Got to agree with the earlier reply though. How can you beat Lorraine Chandler What Can I Do/Tell Me You're Mine and The Steinways? The epitome of our music.

What about those 2 classic Artistics tracks, I'm Gonna Miss Yoy and Hope We Have. Ably backed by the Funk Brothers. Not forgetting 2 more Chicago classics, Can't Satisfy and You've Been Cheating, by the Impressions.

Ginger's got a copy. He rarely plays it though. He put it on a tape for me around 10 years ago. I agree that it is a brilliant record. Really should be played more often. Its also on the Goldmine CD GSCD49 British Soul Volume 1. The Chants later became the Real Thing as well as winning Crufts.

That Beatin Rythmn Frankie and the Classicals Get Out Please Operator The unreleased What Becomes of the Brokenhearted with the spoken intro. Not Northern, but Wow!

Otis Smith was not covered up, but as stated, Moses Smith was the cover up for Ypu Don't Love Me. I was really lucky and bought Girl Across the Street for 25p in 73 when it was massive. My mate worked at the Reform Club in London with half of the Longside from Turf Moor, where Jules Verne wrote Around the World in 80 Days. He found a shop in London that sold soul records and the owner did not have a clue. He bought I'm Gone by Eddie Parker and Billy Sharae, Moses Smith, all the Joshie Jo Armstead on Giant and loads of wheel and Torcg sounds. He was always skint, so we got some real bargains. Unfortunately, I was usually skint and bloody passed the real bargains on!
