nrc Posted January 7, 2013 Share Posted January 7, 2013 I noticed on wicki that Get Out and make me Cry is listed as reaching no 35 in the UK charts in 65. Could you tell me on what label it came out on in the UK. Link to comment Social source share More sharing options...

Dean Posted January 7, 2013 Share Posted January 7, 2013 (edited) It got a release on Route but that was 1975 (i think) Sorry repeat answer, wasn't quick enough! Edited January 7, 2013 by Dean Link to comment Social source share More sharing options...

nrc Posted January 8, 2013 Author Share Posted January 8, 2013 Thanks to all for the info. So to sum up i guess it was the UK re- release in 1975 on the Route label that made it to 35 in the Uk charts. I thought myself that it didn't get released in the UK in 65, thats what i was mis-interpreting in the discography. Thanks. Link to comment Social source share More sharing options...

Pete S Posted January 9, 2013 Share Posted January 9, 2013 No it was more likely to have been Tommy Hunt's version, recorded as a cover along with Crackin Up Over You, these were massive Wigan spins courtesy of Russ and I think they were in top 3 in the "Wigan Casino Chart" that appeared in Record Mirror.

Steve Foran Posted January 9, 2013 Share Posted January 9, 2013 Hi Guys nope it was Bob Kuban. Tended to treat Tommy Hunt as a joke when I went to WC. However saw him at a small place here in Stockport some years later and he was very good. He did a kind of request thing in the break and sung the requests on his own without the band. Thank You.

Guest Dave Turner Posted January 9, 2013 Share Posted January 9, 2013 Pete, I seem to remember hearing another version around the time Harold Melvin was played but it deffo wasn't the Tommy Hunt so I'm assuming it's the Bob Kuban. Where I heard it I can't recall but I just know I heard it. Link to comment Social source share More sharing options...
Pete S Posted January 9, 2013 Share Posted January 9, 2013 Steve, Dave, I will bet you a fiver it was Tommy Hunt, I'll dig out a casino tape where they play it and announce it as Tommy Hunt it sounds nothing like Bob Kuban's version, Bob Kuban's version is little-known now and was more or less unknown then.

Sorry mate, I never bet more than 10p on owt That would fit though as at the time Casino was awash with tailor mades being pumped up for intended release ie Spark, Black Magic, Disco Demand and of course Soussan's synthed efforts. I may even have heard what was most likely the Kuban locally ie small Friday/Sunday night dos where sometimes someone pulls out the poor man's version for a play.

No I reckon Bob Kuban was played around the time of Harold Melvin. It was also played at Peterborough and St Ives ( maybe). I went to all 3. I think TH was a bit later. What year was HM around 74 -75 I guess? Think TH was a bit later. Lovin on the losin side seemed to be big and reasonable. What year was that? Nope reasonably certain Bob Kuban was my man. I think Bob Kuban was a little faster than HM from my memory. Link to comment Social source share More sharing options...

Steve Foran Posted January 9, 2013 Share Posted January 9, 2013 Hmmm did not realise that. And when was BK played and by whom. Maybe a Peterborough or St Ives based DJ who did not play at WC?? Just a thought. Thanks Pete. Link to comment Social source share More sharing options...

Steve Foran Posted January 9, 2013 Share Posted January 9, 2013 Just played both TH and BK on youtube. Both are quicker than HM to my ear. I think BK was the version I was thinking about in my earlier post. Wonder who claims credit for playing BK first maybe that will answer it. Good fun!

Exactly - this falls right in the middle of that period - I remember "The Night" was No.1 in that chart of top spins Link to comment Social source share More sharing options...
Pete S Posted January 9, 2013 Share Posted January 9, 2013 Also if you remember, Spark Records were heavily involved with the Casino, all their releases got spins e.g. Ruth Swann - Tainted love, Linda & The Funky Boys, Gene Latter, Val McKenna - Love feeling.

Chas Posted January 9, 2013 Share Posted January 9, 2013 Supposed to be a bit of a tyrant wasn't he,Harold Melvin? Not paying band members,sacking them hence the line up changes.Urban myth maybe? Link to comment Social source share More sharing options...
