Godzilla Posted December 31, 2004 Share Posted December 31, 2004 Not a Northern Soul query, but I know there are plenty of people on here with wide tastes and knowledge. I play at a night with a pal of mine who is an old skool hip hop DJ. He spins that and I play funky soul, and the mix goes down very well. I started playing the Tony Drake version of Love Child it's getting pretty popular. My pal Kista asked if I could get him a copy and I didn't think it would be too difficult as I didn't think it was anything special really. My searches, however have been fruitless. Is this 45 rarer than I thought, or is it just considered to be too bobbins to be worth listing? All help appreciated. Cheers, Godz Link to comment Social source share More sharing options...
Godzilla Posted December 31, 2004 Author Share Posted December 31, 2004 Hmmm, no replies. Does this mean I'm asking a daft question unworthy of an answer? If so just tell me - I can take it! Or does it mean that nobody knows anything about this record but you're all to ashamed to say so? I went on Dave Rimmers site and checked Discographies and noticed the flip is unknown (It's "Can't You Hear Your Mama Calling") so maybe it is a bit obscure? For God's sake don't make me go on the Funk45 forum. Those fellers are even more up their own bums than we are on here! I know, pretend I'm a famous scene person and give us an opinion Cheers, Godz oh by the way, I don't suppose it's worth asking about the Larry Carlton 45 on here either is it?

Tony really makes the song his own, with a sort of Southern feel to it. Godz Edited December 31, 2004 by Godzilla Link to comment Social source share More sharing options...
