hmm..all about timing..was played quite a bit later on..75 ish...

 

 

maybe not big but certainly popular..it appears on quite a few of my live tapes from that dateline...

 

 

Still got my "looky - likey - Rika" so some poor bootlegger must've got their fingers burned.

 

Also big enough to get a pressing on Soul galore?

I certainly remember it from my formative years although can't be precise about where/when

Not my sort of record but Ral Donner "Don't let it slip away". Marva Jones "I got your number" played by Pep as I remember.

 

I finally got my 4th Anniversary tape back this week and it features Alan Rhodes spot followed by Pep's, both of them play Marva Jones but it rarely got played after that really...thought it would go huge.

The Gladiators. That Miami Sound. 

Still got an Emidisc with Johnny Bragg on the other side.

Of course it,s a mash up of the Centuries , Jack 23 surf instrumental but huge for a month.

ha yes..i only ever remember this from Sam's..but sure JV must've played it elsewhere..an exclusive for him..bit too fast really...
