Hi Id like to know if this can be got on record as I heard it was unreleased.

Thanks, GRaham

yes it was done as a white label about 5 years ago. i stuck a motown label on mine might be persuaded to let it go

dave

Ya, ok Dave.

how much?

you got paypal

got a copy to sell myself too,after dave's sold his own ,if anyone's interested in ..

Got this, is it Diana Ross or Florence Ballard, always thought it was Ross (but not sure) any help.

By the way i know there are a few takes on this but my favourite is O.C. Smith on Columbia LP.

CD release from the late 90s or early noughties...

No vinyl issue other than the white label boot

CLASSICS IV do a decent version and there's a real laid back verson by Billy Eckstine

It was released on this CD alongside a lesser known track by Frank Wilson.

As for the Classics IV, weren't theirs the original version?

You might like to try Georgie Fames version or John Legends sample

there is a version by Betty Lavette on TCA, but i don't think it's that hot

classics 4 orig version.written by the band reached no 8 on charts in usa in late 1968 rarer than timi yuro on britiish liberty but then theres that little obstacle of demand

This was originally played years ago by Terry Jones at the Norfolk Village, at the time Im pretty certain it was only available on a dodgy Belgium comp. I heard it & got the details off TJ, but was unable to source the CD, this was pre ebay remember. Eventually I found the CD through Pete Lowrie & cut several acetates which were placed with prominent DJ's, the rest as they say is history. One of the tunes that was huge at the Abshott Soul Nights for me, & at its peak it was pressed up as a white label. I'm pretty sure its Diana Ross on lead vocal, Im not normally a fan of Ms Ross's vocal ability, but this is one of her finest cuts IMO.

Can someone post this up propper,me machine wont do it? and it is good.

I do like the Betty Lavette version. Amazing what good songwriters can come up with. All different versions. All very good.

Great record, it's Diana on lead. I've got the white label, in the absence of any alternative I don't see a problem as it's a fantastic track

But wouldn't it be great if Motown brought out a lovely vinyl LP to include the great unissued stuff like this ......seeing it's 50th anniversary year and all that

Like a unissued version of Big Wheels of Motown ... I can remember carrying it home on the bus not being able to wait to play it!

Richard's cds were good but it would be nice to get the tracks on a nice big shiny LP

ANYONE GOT A COPY OF BOOT WITH "DONT LET TRUE LOVE DIE" FROM THIS ALBUM ON THE OTHER SIDE ?

I'm rather partial to the Bobby Gentry version meself....

No .............

I first heard it at the 100 Club around 1997 when Pete Lowrie was on. He announced it as being by Diana Ross. I think it's a wonderful record.
