Mark,

As Eddie mentioned, RW did indeed play it first. The supplier ...who else but Simon Soussan. The undisputed King discoverer 1972-74!

For the first few weeks, requests poured in for 'the James Bond record' !!

On a serious note look out for Yvonne Baker - Eyes - Argo nice record which really shows off her voice well.

Bloody hell, a name from the past. I used to go in 1969 and remember Mckenna Mendolson Mainline-She's Alright! Petal ..a top guy.

Who cut the more modern version of it?

Confused here. Are you saying that YDSAW was first played out in 1969?!

Kieth played more than mmm in those days was also instrumental in teaching the idiot DJS like me the art of Dance Music and that you played Roosevelt and Ira Lee b4 Polk Salad Annie.

Rare times

I will agree with that Jo, on Junior I think, with a great version of I cant change on the other side for good measure, and probably cheap as chips still.

'twas the fair maiden Patty Austin.

Following on to this thread, has anyone published a book listing the classics like this along with the discoverer and/or DJ who played it first?

Where it was played and what month/year etc.

Is anyone that knowledgeable.

Yvonne Baker-You Didnt Say A Word if ever a song was wrote for a James Bond movie it would have fitted pefectly to one of the older bond movies.

You're absolutely right Neil. If you haven't heard it check out "You Only Live Twice" by Lorraine Chandler. A stunning Pied Piper production, that undoubtedly was made with Bond in mind.

Excellent idea, but HUGE potential for arguments. I could imagine the errors/corrections being larger than the book itself!

Paul

Really?

Many thanks. One of that rare example of a song with two completely different versions that I enjoy both of.
