 Do You Mean You Copped My Soul On Select Steve?

Kirsty

 

No Kirsty, there is another version doing the rounds, from Ohio, if no one else can pin a tail on it, I'll dig it out tonight as it is at home. Same title and sounds almost the same, it might even be the same recording, I wonder if the Prodigal or Motown boys decided that the group name needed to be more rememorable and so picked Orange Sunshine. I'll have a gander when I get in.

I think Chalkie once did a massive list of records which have been covered and then uncovered. Not sure it was on here or Dave Flynn's forum ?

 

Chalkie, Chalkie, Chalkie..........where are you ? :shhh:

I think Flynny has updated his site with most of those I had that he didn't have.

As for the Barons, I dunno, I will try and find out.

His best ones were without doubt the cartoons of the day. Topcat , phantom janitor and the misleading James Mack and the Chicago Gangsters. Great days, fantastic music.

Does Dave Frequent Soul Source Chalky?

Kirsty

Kirsty, Dave Molloy was and is privy to any Searling cover ups, whether he decides to confide in you is down to him, always comes up trumps for me. That said he was our best man at our Wedding. By the way two Dave's have been quoted Mr Flynn and  Molloy, if Molly is who you contact he his often on face book.

Chalky is spot on Dave was privvy to all Searling's cover ups. They travelled many years together and are the best of friends. Just PM me anytime and I will consult with my Guru x
