Currently on Manship auction
It's not my bag either, but some folks maybe into this type of sound or just interested due to it's supposed rarity as John Manship mentions on his current write up as below on his auction site. https://www.raresoulman.co.uk/harmonica-harry-nothing-but-the-blues-rampart-ramblers-soulin-sr-100-197263.html Harmonica Harry Nothing But The Blues / Rampart Ramblers Soulin' : SR 100 (45s) Elmon Mickle aka Model "T" Slim with another strong Los Angeles, street-Blues mover this time under the alias of Harmonica Harry on an extremely rare label neighborhood label produced by Jack "Moon" Elliott. In our experience this is Model T's rarest 45 by far. Written by the highly regarded "Hooks Brothers" of Los Angeles., a partnership that crafted too many to mention, street-level Blues/Soul/R&B productions during the 60's. All on colourful,, independent labels, all highly sought after. This example surfacing only twice this century, in acceptable condition. This copy is a real beauty, two flawless labels, full gloss vinyl revealing only the merest signs of human contact. "An impossible find" So now listen again to Model T's harmonica prowess as his rips into Mickel Hooks aggressive creation. Searing Harp notes will ring in your ears, whilst tricky guitar rhythms lay down the pulses for this Jump Blues" winner, an imposing raw R&B dance experience x 2. Noting hardly anyone can boast of owning this relentless L.A. R&B Tittyshaker, leaving an opening an enterprising R&B DJ to break some new ground. The flipside adds a crazed saxophone into the mix, making this a fabulous double-helping of seriously RARE R&B that just never comes to market.

Poll: Version Battle - Wide Awake In A Dream
Collins for me, a nice snappy arrangement and I lean towards the 70's more these day's.

Selling a c/u question?
I'm very surprised that Sam has let an exclusive only known copy tune go, I would have thought that now with venues opening he'd love to play it to the masses.
