Poll: Version Battle - Run For Your Life
I bet all 3 versions bombed commercially! Strictly Northern and all brilliant. Luther by a whisker. It's a pity Fred Hughes did not make a version as it's right up his depressive melodramatic style! Ed

Pointer Sisters - Send Him Back
First time I heard this was around 77/8 at Wakefield Unity Hall. Almost straight away it was pressed up with very good fakes! The demos are nice! Ed

Leroy Hutson and Me.
Wow.....thats some dialogue. So in 1979 I bought: 10 pence demo, as a punt... Never heard it at a Northern night, but its close to what was being played. So he wrote cashing in? Good luck with your quest. Ed
