July 23, 201113 yr not aware of this one, is it the same song as Inez and Charlie Fox? I ask as I love Bataan and the afore mentioned song and can only think the combination would be sublime.

It's an lp only track, off the brilliant "Singing some Soul" lp. Same track as Sunny and the Sunliners and also I think the flip of Seven Souls - I still love you" on OkeH. Joe's is my favourite version. Lp's a tough one, probably £100 - 150.

July 23, 201113 yr Hi Jordi. Its here in front of me on a 45, Fania 737. Flip is "ordinary guy".Thanks Ray Blimey, I never knew that Ray. I'll have to look out for that. I'm sure my Ordinary Guy has Crystal Blue Persuasion on the other side.

July 23, 201113 yr yep my crystal blue has ordinary on the other side if I remember correctly, but is it uptite not Fania?
July 23, 201113 yr ordinary guy was released 4 different times across uptite / fania with different sides on the other side. the one with crystal blue persuasion is the most common because crystal blue persuasion was a hit.
July 26, 201113 yr Hehe, that's my youtube channel Great LP bout £120 to £150 and packed full of top tracks. His best "soul" LP IMO. Edited July 26, 201113 yr by phillyDaveG
July 26, 201113 yr Note also that Sunny and the Sunliners had two different releases of 'I'm No Stranger', first on Teardrop and then picked up for national distribution by London (in the US) .... except that the London release is a markedly different and vastly superior take than that on Teardrop which is fine in itself by the way, but the London release really is the business.
July 26, 201113 yr This 45 was released in 1975 to cash in on the success that Bataan was having on Mericano / Salsoul, with the Bottle and his later version of Ordinary Guy. I think it is probably a very hard single to turn up. The version of 'Ordinary Guy' on this 45 is the version from 'Singing Some Soul' not one of the other versions he recorded at Fania. On 'I'm No Stranger' he was covering the Seven Souls as a copy of the single was in the LP's project bag at Fania.
