Played lots in mod clubs. Remember hearing it at Shotgun a lot. Great record.....is it on the UK King (pale blue with the lettering in dark crowns) or the US King that had a UK counterpart? ie. Mary Love? As I thought the two labels were actually different?

Hammered on the London mod scene at some time in the late eighties if I remember rightly? Not bad as a lesser played RnB style track I guess. The copies on king were really easy to get. Was this a case of them having some tracks in the can and the label releasing it in the UK post them having some hits?

Thanks for the clip. It may have had a life on the London Mod scene but me thinks this will go up North.

Got a few more this week so will try very hard to put some clips up, well my daughter will !!

Happy Daze

have to say, doesn't do it for me as a northern record at all

don't like the way they have recreated that 'pressed badly off center' sound for a start :huh:

nice for the car though :)

As Stu has said, has been well hammered & standard fair at best, i'd be at best unmoved if i heard this at an NS do, there's hundreds of better NS records to play.

the king release is a better mix than the roulette copy imo.

the roulette has a bit more backing vocals if i remember right.

hi joe

new to me this, what do they go for.

Personally I prefer the Roulette mix. Have had it on white demo and have a multi coloured issue but also seen on a redish colour issue.

The UK King LP was also reissued on Major Minor

So has the thread starter methinks :lol:

The LP also had a US release on Roulette & the version on there is the one without the extra backing vocals by the way.

Nice enough tune but think the title probably speaks for the record ?
