Great record from a great label.

It was the other side, Steve, but it was also on a Wigan Casino Goldmine too!

So you're right.... and you're right!

Not come across this for a while.

Heard it first about 1978 at Cleggy WG, same time as Carol Andersons Im not worried, and Gloria and the Tiars Im so Satisfied

Great records, makes you wonder why so many top tunes get overlooked for the top 500.

Ed

Great Southern tune!

Flipside "I Can't Lie To My Heart" is Magnificent!

Sean

Totally agree about the flipside Sean

And what a fantastic looking label too!

Cheers

Absolutely so very rare as an original. I sold my DJing 45 in 1979 and was fortunate enough, to buy the same copy back in 2006..as you say the flipside is a flawless piece of soul.

Aye it is a tough 'un Mr M

I've had a VG+ copy for years and have never seen a better one to upgrade to! In fact i keep a red 'un too so that i can play the B side at home with no pops n crackles

Cheers

I remember reading in an old copy of Hot buttered soul magazine , that a lot of the red re - issues were imported to Holland etc , because of the following for the more down tempo flip .Best ,Eddie
