Great and very overlooked mid-tempo for less than a tenner!!! https://youtu.be/N53m3xoxowo?si=IMv5VX_mH_WpLAmk Barbara Green Young Boy Vivid M- £20 Here on the original label from 1964 (reissued in 1968 on ‘Renee’) ‘Young boy’ is a very slick mid-pacer - great harmonies. Haunting vocal and so hard to believe she was only 13 when she recorded this!!! ‘Too young to fall in love’!!!! and hard to believe she didn’t go on to record more than just the two 45s https://youtu.be/cUOwCCbCU2g?si=a23XH0x5oen-eS8M Garland Green Angel Baby Uni M- £30 Looking great in original logo matching UNI company sleeve.
