Pete S Posted August 18, 2011 Share Posted August 18, 2011 This was kept on catalogue for ages, well into the 70's, eventually they changed it to the 1974-75 multicoloured design and it was still on catalogue in 76-77... Link to comment Social source share More sharing options...

Absolutely In answer to original question, though Holiday definitely original A side - complete with "and his multisound organ" credit which was deleted from later issues Link to comment Social source share More sharing options...

Godzilla Posted August 18, 2011 Share Posted August 18, 2011 Thats a pretty rare demo actually. Not mine unfortunately. Had a couple of copies of the other demo with the Kid as A side in last few years. Ha! I guess this would count as the first "Belgian sound' played on the Northern scene.

Godzilla Posted August 18, 2011 Share Posted August 18, 2011 Yeah followed by Jess & James "Move" I reckon... Completely forgotten about that song! Don't think I realised it was Belgian either - certainly wasn't as massive as The Kid around Manchester. Schoolkids who weren't into soul had that in their record box. I was going to post the great video of Jess James from Youtube but I can't find the 'add media' button any more... Link to comment Social source share More sharing options...

The Kid as A side and Holiday as B side. Yep its the one on the right. Didnt want to make a cock up on price. The white demo looks awesome. mine is the later demo. must dig out.

Amsterdam Russ Posted August 18, 2011 Share Posted August 18, 2011 (edited) Holiday - was this not the theme tune to a TV documentary - something like "If it's Tuesday, it must be Belgium"? Come to think of it, I remember being told that The Kid was used as the theme tune to a well-known programme over here in the Netherlands. Looking online, apparently it was used by a DJ called Lex Harding on a Dutch pirate radio ship called Veronica. It also seems that somewhere down the line the titles got mixed up and what is labelled as Holiday is in reality the track called The Kid - and vice versa. This might explain the confused relabelling of A and B sides on later issues - except that they were still wrong!
