Northern Soul Uk Posted April 20, 2013 Share Posted April 20, 2013 (edited) I was just going through the old collection sorting out my set for tomorrows Leeds Central, and I pulled out the boot copy of 'Maurice Chestnut - Too darn soulful', I have looked at the flip numerous times ''You don't love me anymore', never playing it thinking it was a cover of the Johnny Caswell track. But it's not, it's an excellent mid tempo groover, really shocked when I played it, never heard it before. Has anyone else heard it? was it on the flip of the original copies?

Agentsmith Posted April 20, 2013 Share Posted April 20, 2013 great b-side, but it has been played....no surprises there then! Link to comment Social source share More sharing options...
Northern Soul Uk Posted April 20, 2013 Author Share Posted April 20, 2013 Ah! not heard it out then. Link to comment Social source share More sharing options...
Wrongcrowd Posted April 20, 2013 Share Posted April 20, 2013 I would guess that anyone that has had a copy would have flipped it, 'cos Morris Chestnut has never cut a bad record. Though I've never heard it played out anywhere other than the odd rare soul night around 20+ years ago. 1 Link to comment Social source share More sharing options...
Northern Soul Uk Posted April 20, 2013 Author Share Posted April 20, 2013 Yeah, as I say, the reason I didn't play the flip is because of the title, thought it might just be a spurious version of the Johnny Caswell tune, so never bothered. Link to comment Social source share More sharing options...
Rich B Posted April 20, 2013 Share Posted April 20, 2013 thought it might just be a spurious version of the Johnny Caswell tune, so never bothered. Do you mind me asking why you thought a version of YDLMA by Morris Chestnut wouldn't be worth hearing? 1 Link to comment Social source share More sharing options...
Harry Crosby Posted April 20, 2013 Share Posted April 20, 2013 Used to play this one out myself in the 80`s great track. Then again fantastic vocalist. Link to comment Social source share More sharing options...

Rich B Posted April 20, 2013 Share Posted April 20, 2013 (edited) Couldn't agree more - and if you thought you had another version of YDLMA......? Into soul for 45 years and never flipped it? What other treats are in store for you? ps I had to borrow the money from my big brother (he just happened to be in Selecta at the same time) to buy my Renfro copy of Morris Chestnut......still burns!

I know, and to be truthful I am usually a stickler for 'B' sides too, there are many hidden treasures lying on flips. Can't imagine why I didn't flip it years age, I've had if for yonks, as i said, must have just been the title that put me off doing it, I have had other re-presses that have had spurious versions of other tracks on the flip and renamed as the artist on the 'A' side, and I think that must have swayed me. But hey! a nice surprise, albeit quite a quiet press, still a stunner. Link to comment Social source share More sharing options...
