I defy anyone to keep a straight face while listening to this record, this is the worst vocal ever and he even forgets the words after half a minute. backing is great though. Sit back and enjoy.

  • This guy couldn't hit a note if he tried. Remember hearing this at John Anderson's with Ady Pountain and the two of us rolling on the floor with laughter. Then a week later we were at a alldayer at Th

  • That Caprells is a great record, both sides. I agree with you about the Wanda Davis version of Save Me.

  •   No it's by Noel & The Fireballs a version of I Can't Turn You Loose, the guy doesn't know the words so he's just grunting and saying Gotta Gotta

Enchantments is wrong on so many fronts; it still confounds me as to how anyone could pick it out of a pile of records and think there was any musical similarity in genre to Fidels, Salvadors etc. From a similar era that dreadful 'There she goes again' on Columbia and the 'Emotions' c/u - you can tell that I am still deeply traumatised as my memory has adopted a protection strategy and tried to wipe out all recollection of 'artists'. You have been warned. Regards. Ion

From that era as well, Okeh records the Professionals - Thats Why I Love You. Sounds like it is being played at 33. The tune drags, the vocals drag. It is a mess, and an awful mess, that is too bad to be true. But like the almost as bad Enchanments it seems to have been enjoyed by the majority.

It sounds like everyone involved in the production was on Mogadon.

Enchantments is a great garage frat record as is the Deadbeats and 7 Dwarfs.It only sounds wrong in a soul context.Esther Phillips on Dont Say Goodbye sounds like Minnie Mouse.George Lemons sounds terrible.Yan Vatiste played it out recently.It is like a black Chas N Dave record.
