Hello Eric ”I Can’t Do Without You” by Marty Lewis,was released twice on BIG DEAL,135 and 136 both with different flip sides....my copy(136)has the funky “Ain’t Nobody’s Business”on t’uther side..

The Mello Souls disc is way over rated,for me that is....but the Johnny Rodgers is an absolute corker...always loved that one....what’s going rate for it these days...?

...the punters wouldn’t know if they were coming or going..😂..

HaHaHa...Hey,I bought it for the “Icsi”side...and found “I need you”on t’uther....yipeee...

HA HA BRILLIANT....... ...yes,I would have thought it a bit risky too...lovely record tho... id have thought the other side would have been more of an all nighter spin “I Can’t Stand It”

Great choice with The Sophistcates Len...always loved that one....

...and I think it was “Looking For You” (version of G Mimms),on the flip...,

No,those aren’t counterfeit KENT records....those are the pre-orders KevinKent put in,ready to be shipped out...... 😂😂😂😂😂😂🤫🤫🤫

...who was the collector/DJ that Richard was referring to?...it sounds like the identy has been “cut out”...for some reason,I seem to think it was Shifty,tho probably wrong....

...like this one Robb?...there is also a “worn” machine stamp of some sort on both sides,very difficult to make out...

Can’t you not see any tell-tale markings in the run out grooves of each disc,looks pretty easy to see through the glass?

....that’s the UK sleeve....and even that looks fake....

Moxey,did you ever sell this on? If not,is it for sale now?

...morning,and here’s a picture of mine,only with a different text layout to Bo’s and Eddie’s...and it does look like a MUSIC CITY stamp too...

...Dooley Silverspoon....what a cracker that is....😀....

...hey Steve and Joey ,wonder if you ever flipped it over,I think this would have tugged at your heartstrings too....and what a lovely record it is....gorgeous sound....

...uptempo... ...uplifting... ...Northern Soul...

...the flip side to... “I CANT PLEASE YOU” ...agonizingly miserable... ... and brilliant ...

...not soul,I’m well aware,but the TWO TONE scene was my “springboard” into the NORTHERN SOUL pool.... ...first album by... MADNESS ...and the first by... THE SPECIALS ...along with a “demo” album of the Coventry Automatics(AKA THE SPECIALS)....picked these up a couple of years ago,along with a big boxful of other pic albums,like Nirvana,Motörhead and god knows what.....,

...perfect for a day like today... ......😅.....

...a bit of mid tempo soul magic... with Latin overtones ...t’uther side is good too... Hey Mama

...I too, picked my copy up of The Platters from that years anniversary,(reversed labels!),and this was the version I had heard first....so it’s The platters version for me,but JH a close 2nd...

Slightly off topic...but all copies of The Sex Pistols on “A&M seem to be unplayed or near mint....probably being trickled out onto the market by the same source.... .... ....

It’s been said many times before,that DG had christened the scene”NS”,....was this in print,or was it just a throw away comment that spiraled out of control?...BTW, the “christening“was way before my time... ...
