.........but I've just played Wayne Fontana-Something Keeps Calling Me Back for the first time in many years and it sounded great.

What is the history of this tune on the scene?

Tin helmet on.

Have you heard his 'My Eyes Break Out In Tears' on Fontana?, nice atmospheric dancer!

The one you mention was also done by 'Northern Soul Inc.' (or something like that) in the 70's.

I was just gonna say that! - on Polydor wasn't it? absolutely horrid version. As for My Eyes... was that on the flip of the US MGM issue of Something Keeps Calling or were they two seperate issues?

2 seperate issues, I have the US 'Something Keeps...' and it has 'Pamela, Pamela' on the flip.

Don't forget his very rare version of the Chairman of the Board's 'Give me just a little more time' on UK Philips 6006035
