Agree , Champions League should be for the champions of the respected leagues and not the runners up etc. It makes a mockery of the tournament and it is sad when clubs are happy to finish 3rd or 4th just to qualify for the thing. Money rules though so it will never resort back to the original and best format.

1st two sound like a reggae instro of the Banana Song to my untrained ears ?

Any dj playing records such as Petula Clark have no idea about Northern Soul and no idea about Soul music of any kind. 40 years ago white pop was prevalent on the Northern scene and I thought those times had gone, whoever is playing such records must be lacking ideas , still thousands of great Soul records that deserve a airing before any pop crap.

Its a f**ing joke when refs cannot get the decision right with the help of VAR.

Totally agree Chalky , Towanda/Gloria really spew the lyrics out with angst , The Ohio Players version also lacks that certain something it just seems to be going through the motions.

Its a great song and who gives a f**k what the original is , I get the ovo thing for records decades old but for new releases there is no need and it seems to be an issue what should not exist.

Great topic , so sad the man died so young , one of those people who if you saw their credits on a record you would buy it blind. Wrote one of my fave Otis Clay records '' You Hurt Me For The Last Time '' amongst others . Why, Why , Why , was also done to great effect by The Artistics , top tune.

Yes , my eyesight has improved 200% at least lol.

According to ''Don't Forget The Motor City'' website it is Vance Wilson , see link below. http://www.dftmc.info/titles/to-01.htm

The backing track to '' Angel Baby'' sounds like a slowed down version of Marvin's '' You're A Wonderful One'' , to my ears .

Thanks for posting up the mixclouds Chalky , really looking forward to listening to them both , Jerry and Dave are two hero's of mine

Great thing Google , I just wonder why people do not use it more often !
