plays over the years but not just there

Love the Clarence Jackson mate, so funky!

I always liked this version of a classic song, never heard it played out:

Strangely enough I played love Potion No.9 when I last dj’d at Filthy Soul in London about 18 months ago

Shame there's not an instrumental version - or have I just mugged myself off again? :lol:

Not that I've been very active on the scene since the late seventies, but from what I've heard, this track by Freddie Scott never made it... or did it?  Storming record in my opinion:

 

There has been quite a lot of demand more recently say last 20 years ?

 

it went from an easy 5 quid record to 70 ish...

Some tunes never got the recognitions they maybe should have..

Here's one from me, how about yours..

It was big at Wigan back in the day. Possibly a Mecca spin at first but then on the ‘newies’ conveyor belt at the Casino with Prince George, Black Nasty, Kim Tolliver, Lloyd Michaels etc. A good tune then and now, but dwarfed by the sheer weight of later 70’s discoveries so unlikely to be revived.

How this never made it I'll never know. If I'd have had this back in the mid 70s it would have been hammered!

It was one of those tunes that circulated amongst the back bar at Wigan but I guess the time wan't right for it. I remember having it in a sales box with Lost Soul - I'm Gonna Hurt You and stuff like that.

This record made it it was played everywhere in the mid sixties on radio in clubs, as a result of it being a hit it was copied by most of the British pop groups of the time usually on ep,s Rolling Stones included

Really surprised this brilliant Timothy Wilson spin wasn't bigger, I know it got a few plays at Station Road but I have never heard it played anywhere in recent years.

   

That’s a great record I have always assumed it was a classic that everybody knew.

Yeah it was a Mecca spin, but most clubs played it at the time.
