Can anyone confirm that Barons Of Soul ' You need Love' only 50 copies were pressed, I cannot see it (45 -155) on the discography on Grapevine 2000.

I was only discussing this topic a couple of weeks ago at a soul night. I used to drive quite a bit to places, now I have job that I drive around 50,000 miles a year, getting back into the car for a long trip at the weekend makes me think twice, so I pick and choose a lot more carefully. atb Barry

Picked this up when it came out a couple of years back.... superb tune.

With you on this Mark, quite surprised in a good way regarding the track listing, at least not all the same old, time to chill out and not be a grumpy. atb Barry

Thanks for feed back guys, it's the 1974 cut that I am interested in.

Looking for a clean copy of The Pretenders 'Call It Love' on Carnival. Thanks Barry
