A new series of polls gets underway

This time around we are going for a battle of the 'sides'!

The first one below should show the score, all you have to do is voice your choice in the poll and if you can, post up reasons, views, takes etc  etc

If you do have any suggestions of worthwhile/interesting 45s to feature in the future, then just pm me via @Mike and we can take things from there

 

Getting things going

The Experts

My Love Is Real   v   Shing-A-Loo & Boog-A-Ling Big Mama 

 

My Love Is Real Side

 

 Shing-A-Loo & Boog-A-Ling Big Mama 

 

Two different sides off the one 45 (tag or joby}) to get underway, poll will close in 5 days

One way to look at it is if you had this 45 in your hand right now, which side would you play... ?

Love the record, both sides, but MLIR, Has it for me, don't know why it's never really had it day, loads of atmosphere in the production. Have all the other Tag's  listed on discogs and have always had a soft spot for the label. Gene diamond being the best imho. 

Mlir

MLIR for me though I do like the stabbing organ for want of a better description on tother side.

Another vote for "My Love Is Real". More of a sound of today - a more shuffling rhythm that builds throughout whereas the other side is right in your face from the get go.

MLIR Hands down 

MLIR for me too 

Not keen on either but MLIR is the better side IMO.

MLIR by FAR !!

'My Love Is Real'  all day every day ... can't believe they switched A and B sides on the Jo-By release.

Only one side for me - My Love Is Real.  I'd be disappointed with anyone playing the other side out.

last time I heard Big Mama out it went down a storm, nearly 20 year ago though 😉

like both sides myself but that memory tips BM for my side to play

 

the pink one for me..

Bought this about 18 years ago on JOBY, used to play it out to not much interest ☹️ & don't think I've seen it mentioned much since so quite surprised to see this poll but not half as much as seeing that manship has one on JOBY up for auction. Was it getting plays before/during lockdown ?

My Love is Real is the side for me, with you Kev I'd be disappointed hearing the other side played out, (at a Northern event) awful to me.

MLIR is a pretty good side. Can't see either side as being as good as the current price expectations though.

Last day with this one

The voting's been a bit light on this so if you haven't had a go yet, your choice can still make a difference 😉

The next one is lined up and ready to go tomorrow, as it says above, do feel free to send in your suggestions

cheers
