Amsterdam Russ Posted March 7, 2014 Share Posted March 7, 2014 Nice. Interesting that someone added a snippet of this to refosoul in 2008 with the following text: billy never recorded it, even as a demo. he wrote the song for a girl to sing, and was quite surprised that only proby and the idle few cut it billy never knew of the idle few's version until comparaitively recently, which is an indication of how marginally their sales must have affected his royalty statements. 35secs only,thats all yer`gettin`. https://www.soul-source.co.uk/more/soul-library/billy-vera-people-thats-why-private-unissued-promo-cd-r45509 Link to comment Social source share More sharing options...

John Benson Posted March 7, 2014 Share Posted March 7, 2014 I don't know how many versions of this are out there, but PJ Proby also did it - on his Liberty LP, Enigma I think it was? 1 Link to comment Social source share More sharing options...
