Did Timothy Wilson release ' Love is like an itching in my heart' on a UK label. I have a feeling it may have been on Mercury some time in the mid to late '70s. I seem to think I have/had a copy but can't find it anywhere. It's been driving me mad. Help please!!!!!

It was released on Blue Rock - subsidiary of Mercury. Not sure about a UK release though. 1969. 

You're thinking of Ralph Carter's 70's version on Mercury.
