That would be Stormy of Devastator on Twinight fame John Coll(e)y's the common factor here methinks (or it could be just another Chicago story} I bought by copy in '75 sold it, and bought another in 2007

Yup, never had a problem with that guy. John

I'm confused, Towanda Barnes & Ohio Players are one and the same version???? if thats true then up all night vol.2 has a 'cleanish' version on it

I can remember Russ citing the 4 seasons as one of his favourite groups Hence I don't think he did a set without playing it 73 through 74. Massive Wigan sound one of the all timer's

What!!!!! No mention of the Fith Dimension's Fabulous version of it. David Sanborn on sax and out about 71-72?. Funny thing I'm only aware of this as an album track. But vthe amount of times I've heard it ..It must be a single John

With you all the way on that one specially the long version with the 'rasping' sax break

With

Seems so Lew Kirton does the vocals for Voices the Red Coach outing credited to Willie Feaster, Who is Willie of The Mighty Magnicents Dog Rare too Cheers John

One of his albums has a version of To The Ends of The Earth on it.

Besides, not all instrumentals are uptempo, Northern or "rare" are they?! - I've loved "Southern Sunset" by BRICK and the instrumental version of "After The Dance" on Marvin Gaye's "I Need You" LP since 1976 with no sign of going off 'em yet! Ditto Manzel's "Space Funk" and dozens of others.

Cheaper alternative to Yvonne's version, back in the day, Now I thinks its better in its own right. Came out the same time as The Loreli Stop that was on two different cooured labels too

Commitments, Responsibilities, Wife, Kids, Driving license,.....I could go on , Have put an end tomy Hell raising days fuelled by whatever was available at the time. I look in the mirror and see I'm turning into my Dad in all respects except one If I'm listening to music ..The louder the better and I'll dance anywhere any place any tim

Anyone remember Tears of a clown inst from the Detroit Sound buget album on Contour. Early Wigan spin . and leading on from that Les McCanns River deep mountain high on Atlantic also available on a budget album. Come to think of it round the age of 17 my collection was made up of quite a few Budget albums MFP's etc. some of the Great tracks gleaned from them were. My love is your love Isleys Helpless Four Tops Under my Thumb Del Shannon (plus you got Runaway as well) I want my baby back Stevie Wonder Hit and Run Contours (before the reissue plus Its Growing) Music for Pleasure Food for thought John

Woke up this morning with Soul Symphony Sons of Moses in my head (comes with reading threads before sleep) Breath Taking Guy Dejah Aires (I think)

First time I saw a Sassy copy was at the Raven in '73 Sam played it , Later my mate Kevin bought a copy on Gamble so we all thought that the Sassy copirs were boots, Liberty Belle is the publishing company?
