Hi Harry, Like Steve correctly says "For the love of Mike" is by Patrice Holloway and "Sweet thing" The Funk Brothers. Nice tape that one if I remember correctly, I purchased quite alot of these acetates off Pete Lowrie, quite a nice pick up as they are steeped in history and every time I look at them and play them it transports me to the Hitsvillle Studios.

Regards

Alan
