Kegsy Posted January 15, 2016 Share Posted January 15, 2016 Isn't this just the flip of Elsie Strong ???????? 3 Link to comment Social source share More sharing options...
Dayo Posted January 15, 2016 Share Posted January 15, 2016 Wasn't there also a British-made cover of this song? Came out around '73. I can't remember who did it, but if I remember correctly, the flip side was a quite good mid-tempo swinger..... Link to comment Social source share More sharing options...

Margie Miller released it on UK Route in 1975 as the B-side to "Rock & Roll Waltz", a cover version of the Kay Starr classic.

Paul R Posted January 15, 2016 Share Posted January 15, 2016 (edited) Etta Thomas came out on Santa Ponsa. The other side was 99 ways, not a bad poppy track. Just to confuse matters, 99 Ways also came out as by Judy Gee & the Classmates on Route. Same recording I believe.

Zoomsoulblue Posted January 15, 2016 Author Share Posted January 15, 2016 Vocal - never rated as good as Lenis - however you can hear every word and it doesn't sound rushed Link to comment Social source share More sharing options...

Sean Hampsey Posted January 17, 2016 Share Posted January 17, 2016 Back in the day I always thought that the Elsie Strong was a Selectadisc Boot as it appeared in quantity at the height of the Lenis Guess popularity. But later learned that it was a proper job. Does anyone still play either version out anywhere? It was certainly a MASSIVE indemander at one time.
