well I won’t be posting the other version of the dottys 45 on u tube then The 2 posts on u tube is the version with the up front guitar

Great stuff so he was a proper pain in the arse fair play . So the dottys 45 has 2 pressing runs I presume they were trying to push “I need you” I wonder how 2 completely different takes of the b side ended up being released I thought I would post this as there is nothing online referencing these different takes

It’ is But it’s only 2 minutes everyone can last 2 mins can’t they

its a rare 45 but has 2 b sides its mad

This record is a top rare rnb Detroit session firstly, I was after this for years but after getting a copy, it has now been made clear to me that there are two takes two different mixes, but completely different vocal takes two different label styles with two different takes both top tunes the dottys label without the dots gives up a straight rnb version with guitar up front the dottys label with the dots gives up a more soulful version with different vocals and less guitar I have looked over this 45 Both these 45s are original Detroit 45s only 5 of each versions ever sold on discogs in 20 years so its a tune ! the first version is a straightforward rnb take with rnb guitar high in the mix the second take is different, its more laid back, without the rnb guitar and very soulful with different vocals Callum has and plays the tune I love this tune Its Edwin starrs family

The flip is a great northern style instrumental thats why I bought it then flipped it over and WOW , love it, just class imo Great double sider

Thanks for that so there are still lots of people that enjoy the genre Still a rich vein to be tapped into regarding djs spins I feel.

for example he dropped this in his set at Leeds I had no idea what it was but it sounded so good loud Never heard anything about this record since I did obviously secure my copy and have enjoyed listening to it but this is why I went out in the 80s and 90s to hear people with great taste play great records that I didn’t know fair play to Guy he hasn’t changed one bit maybe the appetite on the soul scene for new things generally has changed? let’s be honest if he had played this record at Stafford it would be fetching hundreds of pounds by now and it would be a tune that everyone would know

Another nice track off that lp which is soulful i bought my copy from Craig Moerer probably 20 years ago it’s a great lp , one of those lps you can play right through both sides without picking up the stylus Look forward

Is this the tune you meant? ,probably a bit to funky and Latin for most on this site the lp as far as I can see was Harvey Avernes last lp Really good lp

Great boogaloo madness on a soul classic really hard to get on a 45 Released on the live it up lp but 2 releases if this lp One on musicor which has this single version on it and one on atol which has a different version with no vocals on it definitely a great dancer that has been forgotten since the 80s mod times

great soulful boogaloo dancer Sounds amazing really loud but as outlined , it’s a soul scene not a boogaloo scene Use it before you loose it

Another super soulful thing that is really rare on 45 the original lp is also a difficult thing to find but this 45 is included on it Just a great soulful boogaloo needs playing

This is really rare on the original 45 But turns up more often via the original lp soulful and funky should be played

I saw Guy djing in Leeds a few years ago at Rich Buckleys night his set was fantastic, full of fantastic under the radar tunes he has his own way of doing it and his great taste in music is what comes over he just does his own thing doesn't he. is he still out and about playing records? He had not changed a bit since the 80s whatsoever great obscure things being played by someone with great taste
