Ady Croasdell Posted February 7, 2017 Share Posted February 7, 2017 I seem to remember people saying that a version we used was the wrong one. I've just gone through all our tapes and releases (except the Kent single) and they are all the same. Does anyone know anything else about this? Yours stumped!

Only Dreaming Posted February 7, 2017 Share Posted February 7, 2017 =Hi Ady. I remember commenting on this many moons ago. The difference was between the version on the "Kent 50" compilation and the version on the original issue on the red/yellow UK Pye release. There was a small difference in the lyrics. One version had "come on baby and give me a kiss, come on baby that's just what I miss" versus the more risqué "come on baby take me for a ride, I know mama this has gotta be the night". Can't remember which version was which but sure someone on here will. Dave Link to comment Social source share More sharing options...
Mick Holdsworth Posted February 7, 2017 Share Posted February 7, 2017 (edited) There was definately a different version - Did it get put on a Kent LP, maybe that was it. I know the UK Inferno release (which in itself was a freebie with an LP compilation) was this different vocal take, this was sometime around 83/84 ish, and thought at the time it was taken from the Kent LP, but it's been so long.

Pete S Posted February 7, 2017 Share Posted February 7, 2017 The very first line is different on a couple of versions - one appears to start with "Will you let me" the other sounds like he says "the way you let me" Link to comment Social source share More sharing options...

Is this the single you mean, or was it on another release Link to comment Social source share More sharing options...
Garethx Posted February 7, 2017 Share Posted February 7, 2017 The Pye International single is definitely different to the version used by Kent on the "Club Soul" LP from the mid-1980s. Whether that means it is different to Wand 149 or Wand 169 I don't know. Those both use a Wand master number 50129 if that helps. Link to comment Social source share More sharing options...
Gointoagogo Posted February 7, 2017 Share Posted February 7, 2017 (edited) Wand 149, Kent 45 + Inferno 45 all have "The way you let me have" + "come on baby and give me a kiss" Wand 169 + Pye Int 45's both have "will you let ma have" + "come on baby take me for a ride" Edited 08/02 - I am totally wrong about the 2 Wand 45's. It now looks as if on these 2 releases it is hit and miss as to which version you get.

Ady Croasdell Posted February 7, 2017 Author Share Posted February 7, 2017 Actually it's a completely different vocal with lots of differences, same backing. Gointoagogo is spot on.

This is strange lol - out of the ones I picked from youtube I got the "give me a kiss" on the 149 below. I've known there were 2 versions since the Inferno one came out - was it included in a LP btw? I actually preferred that version to the one had on Wand but I can't remember which Wand one I had and its long gone. I got another one recently and I'll check it when I'm back from hols. I was at a do in Crewe late last year and I mentioned to my pal that they were playing Hand It Over for the second time in 90 minutes but at least they played the other version.

Soul-slider Posted February 7, 2017 Share Posted February 7, 2017 (edited) Well, this prompted me to find a list I wrote years ago! Take a look, I figured out both Chuck Jackson alt takes. What about the others Ady? All on Kent LPs The Terry Callier (not Kent) alt version of 'Look At Me Now' at the bottom of the list could be from a Chess LP I have?

Ady Croasdell Posted February 7, 2017 Author Share Posted February 7, 2017 Not by a pc all I can say is all the Kent versions are different to the uk Pye.

The Yank Posted February 7, 2017 Share Posted February 7, 2017 Going slightly off topic- where did the version of the Platters' "With This Ring" on Kent's Cellar Of Soul Volume Three come from ?? The 45 and album version both clock in at 2:24, this version seems slower and has an extra verse not on the 45- "got nothing but this old heart of mine, Baby please believe in me, Girl you know sweetheart, I'll always try to keep you satisfied...."

Ady Croasdell Posted February 7, 2017 Author Share Posted February 7, 2017 Just played a 169 and defo the Pye version.

Garethx Posted February 7, 2017 Share Posted February 7, 2017 That copy of 169 sounds like a Monarch press (delta 54749) from a Columbia-cut lacquer. Could be that it's a bit more complex than all copies of 149 play one version and all copies of 169 play a completely different one. Can anyone confirm they have a Wand 45 which definitely plays the "give me a kiss…" version? This is the version first used by Kent on "Club Soul" in 1984.

Has anyone got a 169 that plays kiss? It looks like 149 plays both versions though maybe its only demos that play ride? If they are variations could you put the markings up too please?

We used the same version as we had issued in 1994 on our Platters CD but a mono tape, so they sent us two different tapes both the longer version. It must have been edited and remixed for release unless anyone has a copy of the longer version which also has another chorus before the inst break too. I don't think the tempo's different but it's a different brass mix as the bari sax doesn't come in on the second "always love you" as it does on the 45. You can have the extra 20 seconds for free! We'll put the correct version out soon too. Thanks Link to comment Social source share More sharing options...
