Guest soulboy1965 Posted November 14, 2011 Share Posted November 14, 2011 Was this released as a single anywhere? I'm watching a UK Tamla copy of Down To Earth LP but would prefer a 45! Link to comment Social source share More sharing options...

Theothertosspot Posted November 14, 2011 Share Posted November 14, 2011 Think it was an album only release, not sure though. When was George Carrow released on CBS (first issue)? TOTP Link to comment Social source share More sharing options...

Gene-R Posted November 14, 2011 Share Posted November 14, 2011 (edited) Think it was an album only release, not sure though. When was George Carrow released on CBS (first issue)? TOTP June 1967, I believe (on US Columbia only). I think Darrell Banks' version was also an early '67 release, which I guess would make Stevie Wonder's version the original.

The Sound Superb lp also contains the brilliant Hey Love too. Easy to get for about 7 quid. Edited November 14, 2011 by shinehead Link to comment Social source share More sharing options...
