Flip to the Northern "Get A Hold of Yourself" -- UK United Artists (album only in the US) [media=] Hadn't heard this version before, very nice.

Dave Harrison Posted July 1, 2012 Share Posted July 1, 2012 Several versions of this tune, but this is my favourite. Jackie Wilson - Big man cry from the album Whispers Dave https://youtu.be/LSb63HqnblQ Link to comment Social source share More sharing options...

Yeah probably right Chalks, never sure of the definition of BB, suppose something like Roy Hamilton Panic Is On could be a good guide, great closer that one is. Good game this up to now, Spanish goal really sets it up. Aid. Link to comment Social source share More sharing options...
