This is Rock Candy the side that is played the B side is really The Contemplations & was just a filler for the Rock Candy release.

Bought The Contemplations release for the brilliant inst of "Alone With No Love" on it's B side.

 

 

 

Hi Martyn

Hope you are well sir !

Yes i know the story old chap but Rock Candy AWNL was the spin @ The Mecca not Contemplations 

Yes the instrumental is  a belter 

So 2 records 4 sides & collectable 

But i won't be chasing the Contemplations for the instrumental happy with the 1 i got mate

am thinking/looking at closing this the  'playlists' forums and moving/using the 'all about the soul' forum for playlists from events, podcasts, radio shows

looking at doing this as the current setup is fairly unwieldy and could say confusing

there's event playlists, radio show plays, podcasts playlists

add to the mix regular podcasts , regular radio shows which are really podcasts, one off podcasts etc etc

thinking is just use aats for all related ?

any thoughts ?

mike

 

 

Mike

If playlists are from soul events & are vinyl  put them in LAYB forum & put podcasts & radio shows in AATS as they are none vinyl

Just my opinion

The only way is up, collect ability wise, I reckon.

Written by Biddu, one of his better ones.

Moon Williams I can't live without you Dick James Music (DJM) - not the best voice in the world though.

I have another version in the collection somewhere, might recall what it is someday:
