Used to have quite a few punk/garage US 45s but let most of them go for Northern swaps. I kept this 45 though Remember Alex Jones and myself finding 20+ copies of Surrealistic Pillar 45 in a Cajun store somewhere in Louisiana.

No idea how you file your 45s but if say in cardboard sleeve have you checked you ain't put 2 45s in one sleeve ?

Two knobheads and a moron who dropped out at £64.

I don't think so. Didn't see much of Victor after '91 but Stan kept coming. Stan got more into I guess what's called crossover now. I heard Victor on the radio not that long ago but can't remember what it was. Must have been him as introduced as one of innovators and playlist was two-step and mellow rare groove like Jean Carn, Jones Girls etc. If you know 'em say hello from me.

TBH never heard that before. Vocals a bit weak. And being primarily Northern fans we'd kinda steer clear of IL things.

It's the riff 37 seconds in which makes it for me.

We were in Affleck's Palace. Out of the Past.

We used to sell a lot of two-step [and rare groove] albums from our stall in Manchester back in late 80's and the 90's. A London guy called Victor [and his mate Stanley] used to come up to Manchester and kinda told us what to look for style-wise. In the USA at the time these albums were easily available and so a trip to US looking for Northern was financially cushioned if you knew what to look for in those other styles. I remember the first warehouse I went into in Atlanta in '88 I must have come out with 1000+ albums at $1 each. Did the London fairs regularly. They'd sell like hot cakes. One time the table went over there was such a crush to buy. Reminded me of Wigan record bar at times. This track was a popular cheapie [nice little riff at the beginning and repeated toward the end]

Sounds like Three Dog Night to me. Awful !

The riff though is so good it's hard to completely ruin it. Was Benny Hill popular in Japan ?

More likely both had heard "Tighten up" ?

Benji was spot on. Still is despite you and "Louise" agreeing.

Just picked up the album

If you've seen a copy on internet maybe it does exist. Not seen one myself. I assumed "Crime" was A-side hence promo has that both sides.

? I've got a promo stuck on a 45 box cos it's "Crime..." on both sides.
