If there was just one 45?

Posted

 

If there was just the one track (that has never appeared on an official 45) that you would like to have an official 45 release which one would it be?

 I know we could all list loads of potentials but rather than this being a test of your knowledge please pick the one that means the most to you.

The one for me is  “I Have No Choice” credited on a Kent cd to Audrey Matthews (but apparently denied by her and also Sharon McMahon). Anyway whoever is singing it, is there any chance that the guys at Kent can get it out on a 45?

Well for me it would be the great 1964 Temptations recording-[Girl]Why You Wanna Make Me Blue.

Brilliant track - but sorry my original post didn't make it clear that I was looking for tracks that have never appeared on an official 45. I've amended original post.

Ok, I get it, one that comes to mind is Smokey's brilliant tale of drug abuse-Holly.

The Tempests - "Someday" 

That was some vocal by Hazel Martin.

right up there must be the righteous brothers "IT'S UP TO YOU" superb also Freda Payne and the awesome "EASY STREET"

MISSED BITS OUT

My Heart is Calling by Jackie Wilson...and put Growin' Tall on the other side!!

Best,

Clyde Mcphatter -Please give me one more chance.

Ohio Players- Love slipped through my fingers. 

Sorry that's two but both would be mega bucks if on a 45  :hatsoff2:

Agree with you Patto. Would it have been on Roulette Records? 

Bobby Hutton and the quite brilliant "LEND A HAND"

JJ Barnes Sweet Sherry. Wasn't the Contempo version different to the rare Stamps one?

But it did get a 45 release. Official legit, due to demand. Back in the 70s 

Marvelettes  "Only Your Love Can Save Me"

Exciters       "Moving Too Slow"

Gladys Knight "Ain't You Glad You Choose Love"

Both these are on original 45's

The Marvelettes is a US EP (45rpm) , and the Gladys Knight is a Philippines single.  Think both are only promos though.

To start with two from the Temps, Forever in my heart and Angel Doll, make that three, Who you gonna run to

Some great picks on this thread. Some lovely tunes which are new to me.

Thanks

Peter

 

 

I'll second that. As soon as I saw this thread appear, I realised that it was going to become a rich seam containing records that I didn't know.

If I love You-The Stylistics

Problem solved- "If I Love You" is on the flip side of "Stop, Look, Listen, (To Your Heart)  on AVCO #4572. 

You can also get it by Anthony and the Imperials on the other side of "Help Me Find A Way" on United Artists #50720.

Thanks, didn't know that Little Anthony did it.

Thanks for all the replies guys. I have heard so many great new tunes also - I am just glad that they are not on 45's lol as they would be on a wants list that I'd never be able to afford.

I know I only asked for one choice but I have thought of another which I was playing on youtube virtually all last year. It's Honey & The Bees Make You Mine which is apparently an unissued Arctic track - now I would like to have that on a 45.

Here's a few-

       Temptations- "That'll Be The Day"

       Carolyn Crawford- "Until You Came Along"

      Levi and the Vandellas- "Oh, I've Been Blessed"

Wow - it must be 17 years since I was in touch with her yet even now I still think of the quality of the lowrider tapes she gave me - in fact my top want (Royal Chessmen) came from her.

l had no idea, mind you it was 73/74 when l was playing them off LP.

No internet in them days, and l stopped collecting back in 1980.

It's amazing what has turned up on non US/UK labels over the years.

Reguards

Dave T.

A USA original Tamla 45rpm of The Isley Brothers "Tell Me It's Just A Rumour"

A USA original Kapp 45rpm of Freddy Butler "Thats When I Need You"

A USA original Capitol 45rpm of The Magnificent Men "Keep On Climbing"

in fact anything good that didn't come out as a single!
