Posted February 18, 200916 yr Are 2 totally different recordings and the LP sounds like a Pied Piper production in a lot of way, particularly the girly backing vocals. It's far superior to the 45.
February 18, 200916 yr Are 2 totally different recordings and the LP sounds like a Pied Piper production in a lot of way, particularly the girly backing vocals. It's far superior to the 45. They certainly are different recordings Ady and different lengths as well. Is the A-Bet reissue of the album identical to the original release on Money. I note that the publishing company must have been taken over by Jobete by 1972. Chris

February 18, 200916 yr Don't think I've heard the LP version. Any chance of a soundfile Ady/Ken? I will look in a couple of boxes for you Dave later,i have a idea where it is but good chance i don't if i do i'll post the full album up.
February 18, 200916 yr I will look in a couple of boxes for you Dave later,i have a idea where it is but good chance i don't if i do i'll post the full album up. Muchas Gracias Amigo.
February 18, 200916 yr Totally different, even different keys, and I equally like both versions. Each has a different feel.
February 18, 200916 yr Don't think I've heard the LP version. Any chance of a soundfile Ady/Ken? I have a recording of the A-Bet reissue version on my laptop at home. Can post it either tonight or tomorrow if you guys still need it, please PM me a reminder if that's the case... Edit: Have a recording of the 45 version as well that I can post...

February 18, 200916 yr Muchas Gracias Amigo. 7 Boxes later,found........give us a few mins i'll bang it up for you.....i hate lookin' in lp boxes,cant just look without pickin' out some to play what a mess.
February 18, 200916 yr Mp3 are not allowed I forgot about that, Ken, but they're only 96 kb/s quality. And they sound better because they're not allowed. Like forbidden fruit. Go on, have a listen ...nobody's looking.
February 18, 200916 yr Just dug out the Money copy and listened to them both. Can't hear no Pied Piper 'sound' Ady. Think I prefer the original version especially with that majestic/fanfare intro. I'd never heard the LP version before so thanks guys.

I'd never heard the LP version before so thanks guys. As I said, I like both but the 45 version has a nice simplicity to it. Calm and confident.
February 18, 200916 yr Think i have this on A-bet 45,never listened to it. Nice cover shot, Ken. I'm trying to zoom in on the price sticker. Does it really say 35p? And does that include postage?
February 18, 200916 yr Nice cover shot, Ken. I'm trying to zoom in on the price sticker. Does it really say 35p? And does that include postage? I wish think i paid £25 thats the price in £££s originaly.

April 10, 200916 yr Just bought the ABET DEMO. Noticed that my other copy has JUKE BOX Above the Number, R & B Underneath? Other Copies about without this on the Label, now wondering why they needed to specify. Edited April 10, 200916 yr by 45cellar
April 10, 200916 yr Same here Dave.. 1st time i have heard this version, nothing on the 7 inch version imo but not too bad at all...
