Fantastic B Sides Again


Guest

Recommended Posts

I had been after a copy of Rose St. Johns "I know the meaning" for years and ALWAYS missed out on it.

So when my copy came through the letter box on Monday I was over the moon............chucked on the b side ....... Yup :huh:

Sounds like the b sides on Dottie and Millie / Toby Lark on Topper or Monique to me??

I know it has bound to have been played by someone, somewhere at sometime.........but i had never heard it!!!!!

Its great aint it when this happens aint it! :wub:

Never flipped mine after all these years.....quite a nice track mate, bit weak in parts, but still nice.

There was a cheap copy on ebay tonight...not sure if its finished yet or not?

I really like it, that is because I am a soppy mid - tempo fan and always have been as you know buddy :huh: you know..... great for lurvving too :wub:

Honest..............been after this since Alan Handscome put it on a tape for me in 91 or somthing.............I know they pop up now and then but I always missed the bugger!

I find these days I'm buying most of my 45's for the supposed B-Side, to me they are well and truly the A sides!! laughs

try these:

Betty Fikes & the Passsions - I cant lie to my Heart / Southbound as apposed to the other 7ts soul side I can prove it

Betty Harris -What I'd do wrong as apposed to the Northern dancer Mean Man

Rhythm Machine - What you gonna do, as apposed to the in vogue Funk dancer Freakish Love

Melvin Elling - Love's road / Stretch as apposed to the lonely eyes side

Christ there are loads, at work just now so dont have my reference material at hand but will post a load more later..

I bought mine for the Mean man side, then I played What I'd do wrong, and I don't think I've played Mean man since!

Clara Wood - your after my Guy on Imperial had a good flip side, Old and Grey, well worth a listen..

One track I could never understand was that the "gotta Have money" side of the Exits on Gemini, for me it had to be Under the street lamp, maybe you would call it a double sider these days, gotta have Money just never touched the spot.

--

forgot to mention this one I bought recently:

Connie McGill & the Visions - Peace of mind / Sugar as apposed to the 'I wanna Be yours' side, very nice ballad track that has all the visions pitching in at various parts, something magical about the recording, you almost taste the studio they are in , well worth buying INHO..
