Thanks for that, i was probably thinking of the different B side on the boot Cheers Mick

Was there a release with a different B side, (aside from the boot), or am I thinking of something else ? Cheers Mick

Not sure if this is the same part of the song as you are listening to, but on the opening line of the second verse, there is a vocal section which sounds like an edit (music track is fine). Sounds like there were two vocal takes and they spliced between the two and didn't get it quite right. It sort of goes .. "yes, ?ad girl", where the ? has been cut. As a side note, this is also a record I have never seen as a stock copy. Wonder if this was actually released. Cheers Mick

Pete, it went through eBay last year twice !! £100 or so unsold, but went for more on the relist. I wanted it but forgot it the first time round, and got outbid the second time. Would still like one now ... anybody ??

Yes Cheers Mick

Thought that would be the case. Shame

It's alright, red wires and brown wires are both live, so you will get to live. Now mixing red, yelllow, green and blue up .....

Yes, It was the James T Biggs I was thinking of. Sorry can't be of more help. Cheers Mick

Dana Valery "Interest" was one I never thought existed , but a few have turned up in recent years. Surprisingly, her other two US Columbia records are much harder to locate as red issues, but as many folks are only are interested in "Interest", the rarity of the other two is unappreciated. To this day, I have never seen a red "Having You Around" / "Zabadack" (only Canadian orange release) I have a longstanding want for this on US Issue, and would love to be proved wrong, but I don't think it was released. Cheers Mick

The Cobblestone is just a double sided demo of the other side

Dean Courtneys "I'll Always Need You" would indeed be a superb backing track, and with Ady trawling the RCA archives maybe one day it will turn up, albeit improbable unless the original multi track master tape turns up and a mix down can then be made. This is a song, alongside "My Soul Concerto", that Len Barry took with him to RCA, and would be Double Diamond / Champion songs. They would have nothing to do with Pied Piper. Cheers Mick

There is a boot with both vocal versions, but the instrumental is on a yellow skyway label with Karl Evans as the flip. It was pressed with the labels reversed.

I know of the label (from Philly) but not this record. The one I know is one of those many tracks that use the Cody Michaels / Liza Mae backing track. Can't remember the details but it is a male artist. Cheers Mick

Tomangoes backing is one I'd love. Also the backing to Times a Wastin' / Remember / Sugerpie etc was one I'd love to hear

I'd say so. Seems clear as day. Unfortunately, we are all now listening for it, so suggestion may be bending reality. If a CD is being produced, we may hear it more clearly. Mick

Once wore out a brand new Emidisc in the early 70's on its very first play. It was at this point I replaced my gramophone and its nail needle with on of those futuristic record players.

Pete, Started collecting JF records many years ago in my small Pop music collection. I have Six releases of his on UK Philips, a mixture of Demos and Issues. I quite like his version of The Ice Cream Song. Cheers Mick

That surprised me. A few years ago it was capped at £50. I noticed about four months ago that the capping had shot up to well into 3 figures, maybe £250 or more, and about $400 or more on US site. So it looks like the UK site has done a U-Turn and dropped it back to £75. Also the US site has cut it back a bit, but not as much. Currently at 9% capped at $250 Cheers Mick

They did have other releases ... Back Alley Sally / I'll Love You Tomorrow - Gino's 001 Driving Wheel / The Older I Get - Gino's 003 Burning Body / Wherever You Are - Gino's 006 About 2001/2 I received a CD called "Get It While The Getting's Good" by Ross & Hunt - I remember the first release 001 was on it and about 10 or 11 others - I got the impression it was a mixture of older 80's recordings and some new stuff. Cheers Mick

Matt, It was issued on Gino's (Gene Norman) in the eighties - I used to get copies from him when I ordered other stuff (Barbara Carr / Charles Beverly etc) I still have a few copies of the single "I'll Love You Tomorrow" (billed as "Ross & Hunt") on my website - think it's only £2.50 Cheers Mick

Dave, Just PM'd you

Don't know of a cover up, but it might a version of the song by "The Poor Side Of Town" Cheers Mick

It's on Surfside. I think it was the mid nineties when the 45 was pressed, but someone may be able to pin that down more accurately. cheers Mick

Well the copy I saw was in the early nineties, I don't know if the book had been updated by then. I was as John Pughs house and he had the book there. If John sees this then hopefully he can clear it up, although as you say, it is all academic as there is no RT113 full stop.

Yep, sure you're right, I was just trying to suggest a possible reason for the reference to exist in the first place. I had never heard of it prior to SD reference, so I wonder where it originally came from.
