Jim Elliott Posted September 5, 2009 Share Posted September 5, 2009 Folks, Recently heard this (demo?) via a rather splendid interweb radio show, has this recently come to light or has it been around a spell? I'm assuming unreleased. Very nice it is too. Thanks Jim Link to comment Social source share More sharing options...
Sean Hampsey Posted September 5, 2009 Share Posted September 5, 2009 Folks, Recently heard this (demo?) via a rather splendid interweb radio show, has this recently come to light or has it been around a spell? I'm assuming unreleased. Very nice it is too. Thanks Jim:thumbsup: It's been around a good while. Its on a Goldmine CD from some 10 (?) years ago. Various Artists-Groovesville Review Volume 2 - 25 Rare and Unreleased Heartstompers From The Vaults of Detroit GOLDMINE GCSD 87 Melvin actually wrote it. Great tune... and beautiful on a 45 by Darrell Banks. Sean Link to comment Social source share More sharing options...

Sean Hampsey Posted September 5, 2009 Share Posted September 5, 2009 Yep - I have the UK Stax copty too Jim. I first played it out in the early/mid 70's with little success (it didn't really fit the STOMP, STOMP mentality of the time for most people). It was early 80's at Clifton Hall before I started hammering it... and it caught fire! Superb record for sure and an ACE double sider! Sean Link to comment Social source share More sharing options...
Windlesoul Posted September 5, 2009 Share Posted September 5, 2009 On a vaguely related theme, how about the Darrell Banks ace version of Never Alone, got it on a late 60s Volt LP, unreleased as 45 (apart from the version when he was in the Holidays of course) Link to comment Social source share More sharing options...

"Never Alone" is on the "Here To Stay" LP... which is home to the equally brilliant "Forgive Me"... ...Pure Class! Sean Link to comment Social source share More sharing options...
Jim Elliott Posted September 5, 2009 Author Share Posted September 5, 2009 I concur, but 'Look into the eyes of a fool' slays me everytime also. I'm sure Cleveland Horne wrote it. I'll have to get it out now . I wonder what would have happened to DB if he hadn't met his untimely end? Only 26ish years old as well. At least the brits are the custodians of his legacy, Jim Link to comment Social source share More sharing options...
