Eamesy Posted June 15, 2006 Share Posted June 15, 2006 Doing a little write up and was wondering who played this when and where on the UK scene. Thanks. Kevin Think i first heard this on a tape made up for me by Bev Nipps in Reading, about 1974/75 along with many other classics, all new to me at the time. This has always been a fave of mine & heard it out - in a 70s spot - couple of weeks ago. Proof that you dont have tospend a fortune to get a top notch record!!!!

Mark B Posted June 15, 2006 Share Posted June 15, 2006 I would say that this was probably an early spin on the scene possibly the torch maybe the twisted wheel, cnat be sure but it seems to have been around for a long long time. mark Link to comment Social source share More sharing options...

If i remember rightly Bev's tape had things like this track, Charades, Clifford Curry etc, how good did they sound then - and still do now!! Quality tracks stand the test of time mate. Feeling a bit deep tonight with the news about Nige Shaw, a man who knew a quality track for sure!! Alan Link to comment Social source share More sharing options...
tone5446 Posted June 15, 2006 Share Posted June 15, 2006 Always been a cheap tune,always used to be a pound or so in old money. But what a great sound. I was really pleased to hear it the other night (and dance to it) Mark - Reading hasn't been the same since you left.

Yes, sounded good at Lightwater the other week, along with the OJays - Hold On, went well in a 70s spot i thought. Al Oh yes Reading definitely not the same without the big fella - no mod nights - no little mods making a mess on the dancefloor, ripping off toilet doors etc. Happy days!!!

Guest TONY ROUNCE Posted June 16, 2006 Share Posted June 16, 2006 ...Once upon a time copies of this were more common than Beckham's promises of a good England performance - it may still be cheap but - not unlike a good England performance - you don't see it around anywhere near as much anymore (unlike some purportedly rare, £100.00 plus titles that I saw in just about every dealer's box at Cleethorpes. e.g. Larry Trider, Carol and Gerri, Dottie and Millie, Percy Wiggins etc.) My advice to anyone who hasn't got one yet, is to get one now while it's still affordable.

Dayo Posted June 16, 2006 Share Posted June 16, 2006 I think I first heard it around 1974, but I might be confusing it with the Bobby Wells version which certainly was played around then. Link to comment Social source share More sharing options...

Guest pendulum Posted June 16, 2006 Share Posted June 16, 2006 As far as i know it was never played at the wheel or the torch .i think its a great side maybe levine spun it at the mecca. Link to comment Social source share More sharing options...
Guest Posted June 17, 2006 Share Posted June 17, 2006 As far as i know it was never played at the wheel or the torch .i think its a great side maybe levine spun it at the mecca. Don't think anyone really played it out, not even the Mecca got behind this one (can't remrember hearing it). One of the many fabulous records that just got lost in the shuffle of the seventies. Classic style cross-over, first introduced to me by Bob Cattaneo in the early 70s, a nice tune then but didn't compare with The Dynamics on top Ten which he had for sale at the same time. Another piece of rare soul, that proves every great record will have it's day. We are now totally out of stock of this..sold 20 last year according to my data.. Like was mention earlier, if you see it grab it..wondrerful record. PS I've only ever seen it pressed in vinyl.. Link to comment Social source share More sharing options...
