I reckon that would be about right - a long time ago anyway. For some reason it is really famliar to me - but I've never played it at home for years. Was this a main stream tune?
Peter
Right, I better not be greedy - ought to make this the last one from me.
Earl Connelly Make Up Your Mind. Bit of a Mecca classic apparently - before my time. However, I could see this getting some current plays.
Peter
That made me smile mate.
Got a nice Johnny Dean record "I've got a feeling that we'll be seeing each other again" it's a cover of the Al Wilson record. It's a stunner from 1984 produced by Willie Mitchell. There's no clip on tinternet - anyone know it and or have a clip. Pat Brady gave this a few spins as a new release.
Cheers

Sort of off topic but just pulled another out the box - I won't post it up cos I don't particularly like it. Ted Ford You're Gonna Need Me - just played the flip Give Me One More Chance - which ain't a bad ballad.
Anyway it's in a nice old, coloured paper RCA sleeve with a "Mecolico" sticker stuck which says:
Specially Imported By
Soul Bowl 5p
Under licence from MCPS on payment of the precsribed royalty to the British Copyright owners.
Not of huge interest but a little bit of nostalgia.
Peter
Some nice group harmonies on this mid tempo piece of soul music. Not sure if it was a huge record in terms of plays - I like it and it's cheap.
The Intrigues - I'm Gonna Love You
Peter
Another from the dirty box - not had this out for years. A decent enough dancer with some nice vocals - also very cheap I suspect.
Ecstasy, Passion and Pain - Ask Me
Peter
I was only on about that Gia Mateo the other day Phil - posted it up on here in another thread. Great record from back in the day - someone should but that quick.
Peter
Not had time to comment or post yet - I'll be back on later to review and have a bit if soul fun.
Here's a sneaky one. C B Overton - Superstar Lady
Peter
Shows what I know - don't think I've ever heard of Jackie Opel yet listened to any of his tunes. Always pleased to be educated - this is different, but a cracker nontheless. Nice vocals - and sax don't get much better than that does it?
I thought for a minute he was being accompanied by Syd James!
Nice one Steve I enjoyed that.
Peter
Better make this the last one from me - I've posted a couple now.
This ones a right dirty little bugger - I love it though. Not sure if it ever had massive plays - great vocals, great dance record.
Fantastic Four Got to have Your Love
Peter
Three good things to report. Firstly my deck is working ok. Secondly, just flipped that Dramatics 45 - agree it's a nice wailing, bit of soul. Thirdly, my dirty box has some interesting stuff in - lots of em are dusty and dirty, but pretty minty.
Cheers guys. Just gonna get my hands dirty!
Peter
I'm a twat Gary!
I've always neglected stuff I have - but just dug out that Dramatics record to play the flip as Steve suggested and it's a cracker. There's some other good stuff in there too and whilst the box is all dirty and dusty this particular record is a minter - looks brand new.
I must get em sorted.
Peter
