Archie Bell - Look Back Over Your Shoulder. The drumming is straight out of early Motown - was it sampled??!!

Was issued on UK Atlantic - the a side being The Stones I Throw. The group originally backed Ronnie Hawkins and later became The Band!! Northern Soul eh??!!!

Great, cheap & under rated track - 'Time' by The Mighty Clouds Of Joy on ABC

Legend has it that Bob 'Detroit' Foster from Llandudno had 3 copies and sold them in the 80s for relative peanuts along with the rest of his collection.

Their other one on Epic is worth looking out for - I'm Not That Kind Of Guy. Another dancer with a great chorus.

MMmmm not bad but average I think. His voice brought all those awful memories back. Sounds like a Jimmy Radcliffe song.

Cheers Mate. I'll do so in a minute, I'm just in the middle of listening to Bobby Thurston - Very Last Drop. NOTHING should interfere with that!

I've not heard this so I'll take the word of those who have and say it is good. But Craig Douglas was the epitome of a wimpy UK warbler who covered US hits badly, such as Only 16, 100 lbs Clay, Across The Street! Around The Corner & I'm On The Outside Looking In. He would have been more at home on the Woolworths label, Embassy.

Just a mention for the original version by Bobby Marchan on Dial. Great midtempo R&B dancer.

Sad but true, I like to file my 45s in their original sleeves. Can anyone help out with Cadet/ Chess sleeves and a couple of Uptowns? I have loads of UK or US for trade or will pay. PM me please. Cheers, Slim

I have Johnny Fuller's Magic Touch on a Mustang Promo with what looks very much like his autograph on the label. Can't say for sure tho'.

I was sorting out some cheap stuff to put on ebay and happened to play Tamiko Jones - Boy You're Growing On Me on UK Contempo (The brown & orange label). It's not bad actually, reminds me of the Bessie Banks biggie on Quality. Is it being played anywhere? Or can anyone suggest a value for ebay? It's ok, I'm braced for the ''don't bother' suggestions!

Anyone see them when they came over in the 70s? They appeared at The Stables in St Asaph! What a band, not only that but a great group of showmen too, that was the first time I saw anyone do the 'Robot' dance. Robert Upchurch was with them and I still recall his killer heartbreak version of the Gladys Knight hit, Part Time Love. Slim.

I was a 'mature student' in Leicester in 80/81 and knew Ali from his record stall. Didn't Oddfellows kick off at the Saracen's Head in the middle of town? I remember Rev Tony & Ali DJing there. Rough town late at night but great beer. SLIM

Thanks everybody, that's helpful.

I'm considering selling my copy of this but cannot find an indication anywhere of how much to ask. It's a promo copy in EX/EX condition. Thanks, SLIM
