THE PRODUCERS - Love Is Amazing (Huff Puff)

Late '60s favourite from Gamble-Huff, was overlooked but now getting attention. Uncredited lead vocalist may be Mikki Farrow (?)

I obtained a fresh copy of this recently from someone called Pete Smith

VICKI ANDERSON - Wide Awake In A Dream (Deluxe 6201)

Brilliant 1966 version of this great Lloyd Campbell & Phillip James (Blues Busters) song. Produced by James Brown, this was also issued on King 6274 and Brown cut it again in 1974 on Lyn Collins (People 641) which was issued in the UK on Polydor. There are some nice reggae versions of this song too.

There's a report of an early 60's album with tracks by Hoagy on it in and I think this may be one of them. But as you say, UK only on a 45 !

Thanks Mick,

The link has now been corrected. At least I didn't play it at the wrong speed.

Best regards,

thanks Paul,actually dug this out to play a couple of days ago,sounds just right for today,as they say,always did wonder who the vocalist was,other side "lady,lady,lady" is probably the side that was played "back in the day"
