Simongreat choice simon,i go for "such misery" which to me still sounds great after all these years also "if this is love" a great tune and it only sells for about a tenner on drew plus i think it was issued in the uk on a track 45...soulie55...

August 27, 200717 yr in this order DREAM GIRL [WILL GET REGOGNITION ONE DAY] SUGAR AINT SWEET [GREAT TRACK] NEVER LET HER GO [POSSIBLY THEIR GREATEST SLOWIE] BAZ A DREAM GIRL FOR ME TOO!!
August 27, 200717 yr think we had a debate a while back on the merits of such misery vs woman lover thief, didn't we? I love both versions. incidentally, is the drew original of SM rare these days?
August 27, 200717 yr ARE WE ALL ON THE SAME PRECISIONS HERE? 5 OR WAS IT SIX DIFFERENT GROUPS,PHILLY,NEW YORK,BOSTON,DETROIT ETC. BAZ A
August 27, 200717 yr DREAM GIRL FOR ME TOO!! Dont forget the great flip to this "Instant heartbreak (just add tears)" Great double sider and really cheap too.
August 27, 200717 yr ive got an acetate of "instant heartbreak" which is a good 5rpm slower than the released version (dream girl is the same as released)..i wonder if thats how it was recorded....and it was speeded up for the Drew issue......
August 27, 200717 yr just stick the precisions in the site search engine & they'll all (most) come up mate. M
August 27, 200717 yr Great Jerry "Swamp Dogg" Williams produced dancer "New York City" on Atco , must have been recorded by the Precisions 'bout 68 or 69 after the Drew label folded.

August 28, 200717 yr What Would You Do on Wild. Loll Surely not the "same" Precisions. This group on Wild were a Boston band, f I remember correc tly.
August 28, 200717 yr Surely not the "same" Precisions. This group on Wild were a Boston band, f I remember correc tly. Different group entirely. For me it's between "If this is love" for it's sheer energy and "Such Misery". "Sugar ain't sweet" just doesn't do it for me.
August 28, 200717 yr What Would You Do on Wild. Loll great tune... Edited August 28, 200717 yr by markus gora
August 28, 200717 yr ..."Such Misery". Such brilliance.... I don't know if the Atco lot is the same Precisions but if they are, I also really like an unissued track from their Atco session, "I Kissed Her Face" (also recorded by its composer, Swamp Dogg...) and not just because it's unissued and therefore unknown to most people. It's a ballad, BTW...
August 28, 200717 yr Most of the Detroit Precisions is top notch, especially What I want!! Of the other Precisions the group on Hen Mar - My Sense Of Direction is fantastic!!!!

September 3, 200717 yr ..."Such Misery". Such brilliance.... I'm with Tone....'Such Misery' is jaw dropping soul - still brings me out in goosebumps Jo
September 3, 200717 yr What I Want. Without a doubt their best tune period! Phil Damn, I've just agreed with Tone on 'Such Misery' but this would come a hairs-breadth second...Jo
September 5, 200717 yr call me old fashioned but for me its _If this is Love- Brings tears to my eyes
