Hi Paul...Know what you mean..........some times it can be very frustrating when great records like this just do not get real recognition in good time, amongst all the thousand quidders of this world. The good thing is though, is that it IS now getting some recognition, so better late than never methinks...........................pity some of those singing the praises of 'Tribute To Betty' by DJ Genisis would sooner die than acknowledge the existence of the likes of Jamie Lewis 'It's Over' or Jesse Outlaw 'Love You So' and a couple of hundred other great (fast becoming rare) soul records with a dance beat, I could name

--> QUOTE(mark.b @ Apr 11 2006, 10:24 PM) link has been getting spins at the orwell by flanny i think brill 70's is this the only track any good by them? mark Mark glad you said 'I Think' Flanny wouldn't know a good 70's record if he fell over it. He needs to stick to breaking 60's monsters and leave the seventies to Plummy and me Sunday here we come!!!!!!!!

Hi Adam Paid 40 dabs for this quite a few years ago, spun it recently in an 'Album Only' sesh at t'Orwell great tune............ Baz

Hi Ted Gotta say when I saw this on e-bay that's EXACTLY what I thought. I remember that 'Large Dealer from Lancs' having white copies about the same time as the black bootlegs surfaced Baz M

Brilliant track current Orwell reactivation............................

If memeory serves me right Andy Whitmore had a copy of this in his sales box at Bury last Month

[Great old Chestnut 10 to 15 quid But who knows what will happen if Baz and the Boys are playing it. Should cut the going rate to a fiver

Hi Roger UK Island 7", Current spin at the Orwell if it's for Jane (Tony D and Jane) done her a CDR of it for the next Orwell although shouldn't be too 'ard to pick up on orig vinyl....................................

"First to play it at Wigan was definitely Russ, followed by everyone else." Credit where it's due he made Patrice Holloway 'Stolen Hours' 'BIG at WiGaN' and a few others some obvious some not, some good, Dee Dee Barnes 'Do What You Wanna Do' for instance. some bad, Six By Six Band ................

I first heard this at the Casino, probably was played at the Mecca (last hour) like so many sound that where ignored then became massive This was definitely made big by Russ Winstanley, and of i'm not mistaken went on to be included as the 'fourth' record before eight in the latter days of Wigan Still love it and an issue, purchased for the sum of £12.00 still resides in the ole collection Regards BazM
