Benji Posted March 27, 2008 Share Posted March 27, 2008 Anyone mentioned, TOM JONES-CAN`T BREAK THE NEWS, LONG JOHN BALDRY-DRIFTER? long john baldry also covered "let him go and let me love you" (flipside of ray pollard's drifter) and edwin starr's "sos". all tracks are on an album called "looking at long john baldry". quite a nice album, and rather cheap i recall...

Benji Posted March 27, 2008 Share Posted March 27, 2008 HI MARK, YEP SAME AS VIRGINIA BLAKELY ON MOJO, TIS ON HIS 1968 LIBERTY LP TITLE ESCAPES ME BUT NOT A BAD VERSION. LP ALSO HAS A TRACK CALLED RUN LIKE THE DEVIL WHICH IS ACE. BEST BRI. album is called "do what you gotta do" and i think "let nobody love you" and "run like the devil" are complete crap compared to the other (original?) versions. just some sort of novelty value for both songs IMO.
