I've just been listening to today's Radio Cambridge Northern Soul show. Ian played a track that was new to me although apparently it's been around a few years, unfortunately the plonker forgot to give the title and the name sounded like Petronel Staton but every variation of that I can think of comes up blank. Trouble is you can't wind back the BBC Player so if I want to try and pick the title from the lyrics I've got to listen to the whole show again.

Does anyone know what the song was?

Patrinell Staten - Little love affair

Edited February 6, 200817 yr by Simon T

Patrinell Staten Little Love Affair on Sepia from Seattle. A pretty rare original which has had various re-issues over the last five years. First found by John Manship and Keb Darge, I believe, in a California warehouse.

Brilliant record - John Kane played it recently at Bury and as he's Dj'ing for us next week I think I'll ask him to play it again.

Nice one!.

Good luck on finding an original, James James Morrison Morrison Weatherby George Dupree, (you gotta get a shorter name! ) last one sold was £2800. You can, or could, get a legal re-issue here. https://www.lightintheattic.net/  If not, try ebay.

No problem, I'm not averse to legal re-issues, in fact I'd rather have a mint re-iss than a scratched original, even if they're the same price. What I'm after is the sound, not the carrier. As such I probed that website, but they don't seem to have a copy, however... They do have an LP by the girl from The Repercussions and a bunch of stuff by Os Mutantes (What a weird bunch they were, I thought they broke up about a quarter of a century ago...) so all was not lost.

Anyways, I've now located it on a couple of CDs so I guess I'll get it thataway.

BTW, my real name is only one word (Or 3 syllables) shorter than my S-S name, but in its entirity it's way more embarrassing...

I did see it a reissue for sale on a record list yesterday. I'll pm you the website if you want it.
