Tommy1 Posted December 5, 2009 Share Posted December 5, 2009 (edited) One of my favourites from my mod days in early 80s. Just found a couple of this version on a 7" EP. I do believe this is a record company who made lot's of cheap, and mostly bad versions of all kind of music, cos there was a lot of these records there with rock, pop, reggae and country. But the Harlem shuffle is quite good IMO, good vocals and backing. No artist name, anyone who knows this? Edited December 5, 2009 by Tommy1 Link to comment Social source share More sharing options...

Sorry Mark, I thought we were talking about 'versions' of the song in which case it seemed quite right to omit the original from the list.
