There's a lovely 15 second slow intro which has been
edited out for the MP3 plus there's a string break to die for which is just

An LP-only track from 1978 which saw
it's first ever release on 45 in 2000 on the Expansion
'Special Reserve' UK label! Unlike
the John Valenti above this has never really been picked up
on, as the LP is so rare and the UK 45 was criminally
ignored at the time. An absolute 70's masterpiece that
deserves to be heard more often. |

I'm at the breaking point
Absolutely fantastic Crossover/Northern Soul dancer from
1969. Found in the Fame vaults in April 2010 this
has got to be one of THE most significant
discoveries for decades! If you buy only one 45 in
2011 make it this one! |

That's all I really need
(Same both sides) What a lovely record! From the intro, there's about a minute
of finger clicking goodness which breaks into a great mid
tempo dancer with a hook line that you will be humming all
day (check the MP3). Would sound fabulous at many of today's
Northern Soul venues as a thinking mans/woman's oldie? It
has started to get the odd spin recently, so maybe it's time is now? |

4 track promo-only EP made in the
