You're right, definitely "Thats the story of my life", don't know if it was a UK only single but I;ve got it on British Stax. Was also on that Stax Northern Soul album compiled by ian D.

"That's The Story of My Life"

A Fabulous record (IMO).

Volt VOA-4079 I Wanna Make Up (Before We Break Up) / That's The Story Of My Life is the US release, Ady

All three Volt singles are fabulous and cheap too, you can't go wrong.

Since I Lost My Baby's Love is my favourite of the five tunes.
