I have a Pye demo of "What can I say" but I am 100% sure it also came out on another label as I traded it in 20 plus years ago but cannot remember that label (Direction?).

Not having any knowledge beyond buying what I like and hunting down an original, I have agonised over this for years - did I trade the first press and is the Pye copy the second press?

While I am displaying my lack of knowledge, I have always wondered about Skip Black "I done you wrong". I have never seen it on any list ever, and can only presume it is a super rarity.

Any help on prices/seniority greatfully aknowledged.

'What can I Say' originally came out on President in 1968 as 'Crying All Night'. It was then released as 'What Can I Say' on Pye in 1972.

Funny, I've just bought the Pye one but haven't played it yet....I'm hoping it's the same as the President one that I also had and let go many years ago.

As I have long suspected, the Pye release was indeed the second impress then. I have now secured a President demo, so thank you for that.

I've had some of his stuff on Okeh and on Seven Suns, but don't recall which titles. I'll have a dig and see what I can find out.

We had Watson perform for us at the Nostalgia Bar in Folkestone in 2005. He now resides in Folkestone, Kent, and still has a half decent voice but sadly for our booking he prefered to ramble off mid-song into reminiscing, and talking about his neighbour. rolleyes.gif

I might even have donated my vinyl to him, but will check.
