Hi Rachel

I'll look forward to that, I have thought for a while that there was something quite sepecial about the B Side.

There have been many hidden Northern Gems, waiting for us to discover over the years.

My theory is that the B Sides sort of slid through the net, while the attention was focussed on the A Side.

Allowing an Artistic wonderland for Artists, writers, producers etc to flourish.

I tried a similar thread to this the other week >>> Link <<<

It will be a very interesting soundfile thread :lol:

GREAT TUNE :lol:

There are so many superb double headers out there, a regular feature of mine on the radio show is 'two for the price of one' or 'i feel a flip coming on', been doing it since i first started doing the show on 'Solar' way back in November 2000, play at least two or three double headers every show, so important to flip records over when you buy them as you never know.

Hi Mark

Here is one from the early days, that really started a trend of turn the record over and try the B Side.

Although the A Side is just another Dance Craze of the time, the B Side is a timeless classic. :lol:

Hi Steve, I've just gone back to the Sound Clip library and tried it there....it doesn't work there either. Could anyone post a 'working' Nothing in this World... :lol: That would be supersmashinglovely - ta. Jo

Hi Jo

No problem, anytime.

I originally bought this for the A Side "I Can't Change" which I still love.

Today, I too adore "Mend The Torn Pieces" - It's a fantastic record. :D

It did of course get a later issue on Junior 1071 with a slight change to the Credits.

The Sensations with Yvonne Baker changed to Yvonne Baker & The Sensations.

Produced By Kae Williams. appeared on the Label.

So nice to know who helped to create this Masterpiece :lol:
