May 27, 200519 yr Enjoy! link Does'nt sound like Daryl Hall on vocals Pete, to my knowledge he was the groups lead singer, cracking tune tho
May 27, 200519 yr I don't know by whom, and I can't remember where, but I'm sure I've heard this played out somewhere. This is really going to get the old grey matter churning over now. Nick

May 27, 200519 yr Author Nice sound Pete. Any luck with full version yet? link I'd better not put the full version up
May 27, 200519 yr Author Please, ignore the doubters. link Gary, if I put the whole version up I will guarantee you that someone will either PM me, email me or ring me and tell me to remove it or threaten me. Cos people are like that
May 27, 200519 yr Author Please, ignore the doubters. link Anyway, you lose points for having a Star Wars related avatar
May 27, 200519 yr Absolutely brilliant 40 seconds! Reminds me of some Carnival records. It's buzzing around the old box after only one play! Thanks.
May 28, 200519 yr Wow. I'm amazed. It's got a half decent backing track but the vocals are absolutely dreadful. Each to their own and all that... but I would be really, really dissapointed if I heard this while out dancing, let alone in my living room.

Personally don't mind where I hear it...think it's great
May 28, 200519 yr One of those that sound far better played out Seb. That might be so. But it sure sounds awful from where I sit right now.
May 30, 200519 yr That might be so. But it sure sounds awful from where I sit right now. link somehow the full live version here sounded a lot better to my ears ? https://www.soul-source.co.uk/index.php?showtopic=6689
May 30, 200519 yr Butch. Think he first played it at Stafford. link definetely played by butch, i had this on live tape 1986 i think.
May 30, 200519 yr Sounds different to how I remember it? Is there another version? perhaps it was just pitched up a bit, but I remember it a bit faster, and more 'Beefy'? P.S. if you think of Dion Jackson singing "That's what you do to me" while listening to this, there are deffo elements of it in there somewhere! Edited May 30, 200519 yr by Trevski

May 31, 200519 yr I almost said it sounds like an unissued Dion Jackson track, but if it were unissued, there'd be no point in covering it!
June 2, 200519 yr It is good. link Too right its good How did you get this sound clip then? This takes me back to the 100 Club and Butch playing this followed by Little Walter and The Admirations which he used to say was Cynthia Davis "What Shall I Do" Longer version please if you can and have enough barbed wire at your place.
June 2, 200519 yr Author How did you get this sound clip then? link I summoned it up by making a human sacrifice to Beelzebub
June 2, 200519 yr if i remember correctly it's a blue eyed group on an audio arts acetate. [show off mode ON] i got a a clean good quality mp3 of it somewhere but won't post it here for obvious reasons [show off mode OFF]
June 2, 200519 yr Author I'll post the entire version up a bit later on. Gregory McOirish© told me I could. Edited June 3, 200519 yr by Pete-S
June 2, 200519 yr Looking forward to hearing all of this great song. Why is that tthis song is so instantly likeable? And why is the lead singer's falsetto so familiar? It seems like I've been hearing the vowels in 'know' and 'show' all my life. Spooky, deja vu stuff. Who are this group? Edited June 2, 200519 yr by Billy Freemantle
June 6, 200519 yr Pete : A few days ago you said that you were going to upload the full version of the Temptones cover up. Are we going have to keep listening to that tempting 40 seconds forever?

March 3, 200619 yr I almost said it sounds like an unissued Dion Jackson track, but if it were unissued, there'd be no point in covering it! It does sound quite like Deon Jackson, maybe a relative? :-) I'd like it to be the Monzas, they've got a saxophonist and some girls for the backing singers
March 3, 200619 yr oooh thats taken me back to my yoof - well my mid twenties anyway! Have danced my socks off many a time to that Had several live tapes of Butch back then but somehow they've all been borrowed never to be returned - so if any kind soul could do me some copies, I would be most grateful (especially the Droylesden one which Pete Hollander did straight from the decks!)

Enjoy!
