Dave Thorley my notes say - could be wrong about who played it first.

Also, sure it's a 70s record (1970) - although sounds earlier. Not sure if I took a label scan when I flogged it.

I was told it was a Dave Thorley play.Does anyone know of any DJ's likely to have it in their play box ?

MISHEARD LYRIC

I would always sing to myself, 'Strongest man alive'

must be that RnB type riff putting me off

According to some C.d notes I have on the track,

The Black eyed peas, a group comprising largely of ex-members of Th Del-Vikings doo-wop group.....Corinthian 'Kripps' Johnson, Ritzy Lee and Billy Woodruff plus John Byas.

Here's a soundbyte mr. Whizz....

An odd sounding record me thinks but quite good

I first heard it courtesy of Irish Greg who used to play it but I understand it was originally Dave Thorley who discovered it. Used to clear the floor regularly at TOS and SITC and I eventually sold my copy but then bought another one a year later. Continued to clear the floor with that one and sold that copy as well in the end!

Personally I really like it, but it does seem to get a lot of people's backs up for some reason (in fact, one friend of mine regularly cites it as being among his most hated records ever for some reason )

I would have thought it could become an indemand tune for funk/soul minded people given the chance and I seem to remember it being from either '71 or '73 or thereabouts?

No, she just wants it very very badly and I thought it would be a nice thing for you to do

Thanks alot Young Bill

one just went on ebay £56.

would have got it about about 3 to 4 years ago.Gone off it now...

Rather Good IMHO.

Far better than some of the stuff being touted for huge sums these days,I mean,at least it has a 'traditional' Northern beat & passable vocals.

Meaningfull lyrics too ........

I wonder how tiny the smallest man in the world is :tomato2:
