I'm trying to identify a record, '60s, male vocal, sounded a little like Billy Stewart. The record included the line "Watch out before..." or very similar, at the beginning of the chorus.

The tempo and production reminded me of Pat & the Blenders, "Just because"

I heard it played in the Queen Vic at Prestatyn. Any help would be appreciated thanks.

Neither of those two, but they were great listening! Cheers.

I know it doesn't sound like Billy (fat boy) Stewart, but then no one sounds like Billy.

it was the watch out that I was guessing on,but thanks none the less

Not the one but again, great to listen to after a long time no hear. Thanks.

Same title but different song to the Embers.

Can't hear any Billy Stewart similarity but this one is a tad closer to Pat & The Blenders.

Thanks but I've still not found it. By way of a thank you to all of you who've put the time and effort in to helping me, I'm going to list all of the records that I recall hearing in the smaller rooms at the Prestatyn weekender. I'll add them by way of an edit to the event review I've already posted. Hopefully there'll be some that you don't know / be pleased to be reminded of. I'll be listing over 100 so it should at least be an interesting read for a few minutes.

The Showmen, No Girl on Jeree, there is a great version, a better version I dare to say, by Billy Stewart. Can't remember if there are any vocal similarities now though.

This probably isn't it, but The Dramatics - "Whatcha see is watcha get" has the brrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrr and the Watcha in it.

If you remember what time /day you were in the Vic dj list was up and posted in was in there twice so feasible to ask the jocks / jock who was on at the time ??

If the DJ pitched this one up I could imagine it sounding like 'just because' and the Billy Stewart type-O-singing is already there as: 

 

 

 Perhaps this might be the tune ;

Little Hank      - try to understand - SS7 records .

 

Its always reminded me of that Billy Stewart    rrrrr    singing  style..   Great tune this.

Hi Will, Mick H has a tune that I thought sounded like Billy Stewart - "Look back and smile". I even commented on it to Geoff Green at the time. Wasn't at Prestatyn though.

The Billy Stewart one is Shownen No Girl I think, an old Dean Anderson spin. 

No guys, not "No Girl",or the Kings Sound Int's - this one is on a red label. providing I'm thinking of the right record.!

Sounds a bit like Billy, right tempo maybe but the words are not there.
