Rare Northern soul. com are currently advertising with soundbite Paula Parfitt "Bring me Home"C/u . As a Brainteaser can you work out who it is ? I have worked it out, It would cost you 850 pounds  to find out, Cheers  John.

It's a pop record and not even a good one , no wonder the scene is the way it is IMO

Sounds like Cilla Black to me. Could be wrong ?

Seems odd to cover up a (not very good) version of a well known Jay and The Americans 45 and then expect to get £850 for it.

Bobbie Ember? YouTube.

That’s shocking there is no hope

I was wrong 🙄

Bobbie Ember - Why don't you bring me home?  it's simply awful.

Utter utter drivel.  Why cover up something so crap and known? Anyone who pays £8.50 for that dross wants their heads looking at.

I did n’t think their was much hope for all-nighters but If that is getting plays at nighters then all hope is lost. 

Wow, it is truly truly terrible!!

Last two on PS made £30.00 , and that's a tenner too much ... 

Found it on you tube - it's bloody awful!

This one? a so, so sixties pop record...got bugger all to do with Northern Soul...

Says "Samantha appeared on stage and on TV alongside some of the biggest names of the decade, including Val Doonican, Arthur Askey, Ken Dodd and Simon Dee".

 

I doubt this would get played at a nighter/or real deal venue. Although watzit (Ms Junoff) and many others ‘did get a go’.

I quite like it. But I’d leave if I heard it out at a venue.

A bit obvious why he won't bring her home her singing (if you can call it that) drove him mad.

Northern Soul it's going backwards to the pop years at Wigan if that's getting plays .

 

 

 

It’s not even a good 60’s tune let alone a chance of northern soul status!

cover up! I would cover it up with a spar carrier bag and chuck it in the bin!

What has "the scene" to do with one guy trying to sell a poor record way overpriced? Seriously.

He sells “northern soul” records and with it being “covered up” he is hoping to sell to some unsuspecting Dj on the “scene” I guess.

tell me what he said , shapiro

  i could go on,  all of the above are no better than that shocker posted above.    dreadful.     time to put the SOUL back , into Northern.....

All the above are better than the Bobbie Ember abomination.

It's not the fact that it's a shite pop tune that's the issue , it's the fact that the robbing bastard is trying to sell a thirty quid record to some unsuspecting sap for £850 that sticks in my craw ... !

This bloke has been trying this stuff on for years, no one ever touches these comedy 45s he tries to sell - to my knowledge. As Benji said one chancer trying it on doesn’t mean the scene is f*cked. Plenty of other things that could screw it other than this guy’s antics. Fully agree it isn’t pleasant to think he would try and take someone for that much money though.

About sums it up, if I was listening to that to see if I'd buy at a car boot it wouldn't get past the ten second mark. 

Well to contribute to this negatively.

Just as bad are the crappy out and out garage records being passed off as soul!!!

Please please please open your eyes to the thousands of under/never played cheap soul records out there.

And stop trying to be a thingy waver.Its unsightly at our age.😅🤣😂

I thought we had spoken about Jerry Naylor ? laughing

Perhaps the attraction of such a “unique” tune is the anticipation for the Sonic Wax house band remake 🤣

Mmmmm...

I collect soul, northern soul, R&B and 60's girl singers. For me this is definitely in the latter category.  That isn't so say its a bad record (a bit formulaic IMHO), but it sure ain't northern.
