Codfromderby Posted March 23, 2015 Share Posted March 23, 2015 a bit off topic but in the early 80,s i saw get on up on a juke box in a small town in romania, being very sad like i put it on hopefully seeing the label thinking it might be a rare romanian stateside or similar, ran over to the juke box and the record looked like it used to be one of the sceptre wand (i think) re issues but it was so dirty you couldnt see, still played though Link to comment Social source share More sharing options...

Dayo Posted March 27, 2015 Share Posted March 27, 2015 Slightly off topic; I always wondered who was Bunky and why did he used to "pick" the Esquires? 1 Link to comment Social source share More sharing options...

Seano Posted March 27, 2015 Share Posted March 27, 2015 And of course Bunky's Pick on The Ballads "I can't see your love for the tears in my eyes" on Vee Jay. Link to comment Social source share More sharing options...
Seano Posted March 27, 2015 Share Posted March 27, 2015 Going back to The Esquires, I've not heard the album version, but I did pick up the Bunky Records issue of 'Get on up' a few years back and then on Ju-Par Records from Detroit the 1976 version also by The Esquires titled 'Get on up '76'. On the flip side of the earlier release is 'Listen to me' - worth a spin, and the flip of the '76 version is 'Dancing disco' - naff lyrics but a sort of 2 step.

Seano Posted March 28, 2015 Share Posted March 28, 2015 Just dug back in my records again and another Esquires, on Bunky again. The side I like more is 'Everybody's laughing' which to me has the feel of Tony Clarke's 'The Entertainer'. The flip side is 'And get away', faster, and seems linked to 'Get on up' at least in the lyric. Link to comment Social source share More sharing options...
Alan Bonthrone1 Posted March 28, 2015 Author Share Posted March 28, 2015 (edited) Going back to first posting.These seem to be different to the issued 45, s.The side marked "INever Knew" plays "How Could It Be".
