This was on the Record Collector VA LP that came out about 1980? Always wondered if it was a real record or somebody singing over the backing track.

Does anybody have any info please

Cassieta George was a Gospel recording artist who did a few tracks on Audio Arts and its gospel imprint.

Probably a 'from the vaults' tune.

Doesn't sound like her voice though from what I recall. Not heard it for ages but I have a feeling last time I did it may have sounded like a white girl?

Thanks Gents, does anyone know any more?

I was told it was a genuine unreleased Audio Arts tape. However, in the know that the instrumental backing track was booted on the other side of "Losing Your Love" by The Incredibles, a few years before the Destiny LP was released, I still have a small sense of doubt.

Could likely be a "These Heartaches - Dena Barnes" type jobbie?

Ouch! Gotta get that off my "last played clip".

There's another clue on the album sleeve too. It lists who first played all the records on the comp and where and when they were played. "Cassietta" is listed as played by Rob Smith at Notts Palais in 1979. Rob is also credited as playing "Looking for You" (Garnett Mimms tune) by the Echoes - same venue, same year and that's a Destiny Records production. There's also "Hold On" (O'Jays tune) by the Lovemasters, another Destiny production. That one is stated as being played by Russ Winstanley at Wigain in - wait for it - 1979. In fact I remember those tunes coming out on some double sided US release, presumably to pass itself off as a Beach type recording.

Game, set and...?
