I've forgotten more tunes than I can remember.

It's actually me old Mum's all time favourite record, Peter.

I did loads of tapes for her during that time (she's still got em - and even at 85 can still Boogie with the best of 'em) but Pickett has always been her favourite (alongside Syl Johnson "Any Way The Wind Blows" of course).

It's a record that's got it all. Fabulous Lyrics, Superb Production and Absolutely Stunning vocals... puts most of the £1,000 'big tunes' of the day to absolute shame.

Pat Brady was responsible for breaking some of the most 'left field' tunes during that period and was never afraid to go out on a limb. Remember his 'Alexander McKinley' cover up? (Jimmy Bo Horne). Who else would have played that at the time?

Much respect!

Your mum certainly knows her soul music Sean - bless her. My deal mum liked a bit of left field too - Ike Noble's "Your Love" by way of example. A super piece of quality soul music.

Yep - Mr Brady competed with the best in his day! Ah yes Jimmy Bo Horne. Great times - the 80's for me was such a rich time for new soul music - whether from the 60's, 70's or 80's.

Best.

She certainly knows her stuff Pete... but she always rated Brady more than she did me!

For your mum.

Thanks Ken,

She's only got a UK London Demo so I've just emailed it to her!

Reminds me of Roy Hattersley's mum and David Blunkett! The political story is quite sad though - shame on Mr Blunkett. Bit off thread. Better get back to the kitchen before the mods notice.

Great double sider Sean

You might as well send her the other side too

Okie dokie!!

How come we have different A sides?

Edited December 16, 200717 yr by ken

Dunno really Ken ( - I did notice the stars) , but if you check out the number below the date - 2732 for "We did it" and 2733 for the other side.

Generally speaking the lower number is the A side, which suggests mine is the first promo and maybe yours was done later to promote the flip side - to a different audience?

But of course this is only a guess and could be complete nonsense!

I've a few 45s which have been demoed using both sides as 'same both siders' on different 45s.

Off the top of my head, there's the Impressions "Wherever she leads me" as a same both sides demo when it was the B side on Curtom issues.

Also Universal Mind's "For You girl" as same both sides, when the Red Coach issues have "Something fishy..." as the A side.

...But really this ought to be a different thread on it's own and not hogging the Wilson Pickett one!

Mum's always loved "We Did It" too, John.

So have I. Bought it as a new release after hearing Dave Grounds play it (every weekend at the Charade) and I always hammered it at The Windmill, late 70's / early 80's alongside BoBo Mr Soul.... always sounded GREAT together... and even gave 'em both spins at Clifton Hall!

Cracking choon that's now seen as an 'essential' 30+ years later and is (IMO) one of the few 'genuine' 10/10 Double siders.

Think I've about 10 copies... on all formats!
