Having first been introduced into Northern Soul some 50 years ago I was astounded today to discover that two records I have treasured over the years (Dr Love and Something New To Do) were recorded by the lead singer of Bob B Soxx - Here Comes Santa Claus. 

Am I the only one not to know this 🎅

Are you the only one? maybe, possibly. Not a well known fact for the general public but most on here should know so well done for admitting it.

The album it's from - A Christmas Gift For You- was played almost non stop from early December by Ed Balbier at Global Records in the 70s so I know it well and I still play it at home pre Christmas. I didn't know at the time that Bob B Soxx was Bobby Sheen.

The album Global stocked was brand new, shrink wrapped with no deletion sleeve cut corner which was strange for a nine year old record. It was supplies by a well known "House" in a Philly suburb which given Phil Spector's later actions seemed risky, however I think they still had Italian friends.

Another track by Bobby Sheen that is almost as good as Dr Love is I Want You For My Sweet Heart, I don't know if it ever got played much.
