I don't usually get my knickers in a twist over a 70's record, especially a British produced one, but blimey that Clem Curtis record is fantastic, it must surely be the best UK produced soul 45 of the 70's - both sides as well. The production, if you've never heard it before, sounds just like a Willie Mitchell / Hi Studios production like you'd hear on Ann Peebles or Al Green at that time. Great vocal on both sides too. I resisted buying this because I thought I;d come across one easily, I didn't, I paid £55 off Rob Messer for a demo and I think it would take double that to get it off me now. Great stuff.

p.s. should I see a doctor?

Think you needed to see a Doctor a long time ago Pete.

I Think you're beyond help and medical science now

:lol:

You need no doctor Pete,

this record is simply fantastic

I put this on a SS swap CD in 2005. Terrific tune

yeah thats a bloody nice tune pete

Has a nice flipside too, cover of Eddie Floyd 'I've Never Found a Girl'.

I have the yellow Demo too Pete (had it for 30 odd years).

An issue, apparently, went for £300 recently... so 55 squid is a real bargain.

£300!!! blimey! wouldn't have thought it was that hard Sean! that one that Pete posted is off me YT channel, sent it up a couple of years back. that one cost me a quid I think? (mind that was off Pete Ludlum back in the late 80's I think?)

And agree, great version of Eddie Floyd on flip. Looking forward to a catch up at Essence Sean.

Clem lives in my village (small town) so if they are going for £300 i will ask him if he has any stock left over.

Do him a few northern CD's every now and then and he is blown away by some of the unknown songs and

Artists that i put on them.

It'd been sat there on ebay for ages as a buy it now, I went back to it 2 or 3 times and was amazed it was still there.
