L V Johnson is really great double sider

yep that's the one couldn't recall off hand who it was thanks Pete

Is this track anything to do with Don Davis ( I need my baby riff etc.)

Right This ones been bugging me for years,someone played me this track in probably late eighties and i just sang along to it so i already knew it? but where from i can't remember.The only thing i can think of is that i bought a Motown audio cassette legit issue (never saw it on vinyl though) and it was on that,there was also the instrumental of Marvin Gaye Lucky Lucky me (San Remo Strings ?)and a Martha Reeves track i used to really like, but can't remember for sure. When was this track first played out and where and by who????? and was it ever issued on anything or done by someone else say on an album. I suppose it could have been on a tape swappers tape because i used to have loads.

Does anyone know the definitive story on which was issued first as i don't think it has been answered yet,or have i got Ben Turpin eyes. https://www.google.co.uk/imgres?q=ben+turpin&hl=en&safe=active&biw=1024&bih=653&gbv=2&tbm=isch&tbnid=KWPgNpeejnDRuM:&imgrefurl=https://www.nndb.com/people/183/000205565/&docid=weZH8jmvvcQDfM&imgurl=https://www.nndb.com/people/183/000205565/ben-turpin-1-sized.jpg&w=222&h=301&ei=C1pYT6PrIcim0QXFurG8DQ&zoom=1

don't think it will be as J Gadson and Melvin Dunlap had the flu so Ginger Baker and Paul Kossoff stood in !!! :D :D

Lawrence Payton of the Four Tops:-

When has Kegsy ever talked twaddle...!!! ....oooherr maybe sometimes late at an all nighter. Have to agree though re his original choices,when i first started chasing soul 7" most wants were on Stateside or London American .

Yep always loved this ,bought live at carnegie and the intro is fantastic

Clip on here in soul club record of the day thread.

Previously unissused till Goldmine put it out as b side of one of their 7" has since been put out on starburst i think. L V Johnson Got to get rid of you same as J J barnes so think it would be a Groovesville recording by Don Davis BRILLIANT! https://youtu.be/SFhUUNNg2sY

This was passed onto me from a European soul fan via my big bro, so just passing it on a French tele prog from the sixties. https://youtu.be/amo2PQKHmq4 check Brook Benton out.

Hi Mart don't think it's got anything to do with the promoters whatsoever just Pontins dragging their feet. Very frustrating for all
