September 11, 200915 yr Fantastic story, thanks mate for posting that. I have a near mint white Steeltown 'Big Boy' demo and I've got to admit I've always loved the record myself. Definetly my favourite song of all his recordings, pure 60s 'Youth Soul', would be great to eventually hear this version!
