CNR is a Dutch record label with a history stretching back to 1939. They released a greatest hits album of Brasseur's work in 1977. Your 45 is a reissue put out to coincide with that album.

When you play The Kid, do you get this track instead?

Yes thats the track that is on the side labelled THE KID. Any reason why ??

Cause it's better.

The real title of the track we know as The Kid is Holiday. When the two tracks got released outside of the local Belgian/Dutch markets there was a mix up. Holiday became The Kid and vice versa!

This is confirmed on Andre Brasseur's own website (which used to be available in a number of languages including English, but for some reason unknown is available only in French at the moment). Your 45, which was pressed for the local market, has the correct title.

Also, if you watch the clip on YouTube, you'll see a series of comments that further confirm the mix-up in titles.

Thanks for that Russell. Don't suppose it's worth asking for my money back from the seller then eh ??

Worth a try, but I suspect the seller will only think that you're kidding around!

Very funny Russell but don't give up your day job mate lol. Ever thought of a job as a comedian at a HOLIDAY camp ?? Thanks again, Tony.
