One of the most soulful Motown femme tracks ever cut...Why the mix was cut short on the UK TAMLA MOTOWN issue, god only knows...Superb stuff from the girls...

Thanks Harry

I was trying to find something out. It's good that different takes were released like this.

Only a few would have heard them otherwise. I wonder how many have yet to surface on CD etc.

Impossible to know just how many have Danced to their Music over the years.

Seen "Needle In A Haystack" get people of different generations onto the floor at many a Wedding Reception.

When the chart stuff of the day has emptied the very same dancefloor.

hiya H.

There is a clip on youtube-you have to trawl a few, but I've put it on Heywoods facebook page.

However, I have it on Motown Chartbusters 6- don't know if it's on any others, but the same take is on the first Motown Northern Soul CD that Chris King comped.

Maybe it snuck out in Europe- who knows?

And, of course, as common and as well known as it is

" He Was Really Saying Something"

does the very same thing, and remains a great tune.
