Prefer the version by the Harvey Averne Dozen on their LP !!!

Brilliant track. Not sure where or even if it was ever played anywhere, I first bought it (on Paula) in the late 80's after hearing it on a tape

One of the many early tape swoppers tunes from early 80's, I think Tommo from Leicesters legendary first tape for me, was kind of thing you would probably hear at soul night round Preston way but not much else, agree Pete its a great record, and, I assume, still relatively cheap?

One of the Dundee boys used to play this out. Definitely - John MacDonald, Ali or one of the other Genna's DJs.

Very true. I played this at the last Central Soul Club. Brilliant record! Picked up a spare yesterday (on Vault). If some needs a copy then e-mail me. Not too sure what it's worth now.
