Issue 89 of Soul Up North is out NOW!

ALL MY SALES ARE ALWAYS PLAY-GRADED

AND NOT JUST GIVEN A VISUAL ONCE-OVER

ALL THE ITEMS I AM SELLING COME FROM FORTY YEARS OF COLLECTING SOUL

THERE WILL BE SOME REAL GEMS, SO MAKE SURE YOU KEEP YOUR EYES OPEN

SOME OF MY LISTINGS CARRY 'BORROWED' SOUND CLIPS BENEATH THE TITLE

ALL MY ITEMS START WELL BELOW BOOK VALUE

SOME FROM AS LITTLE AS 50p

NOTE THAT THIS SINGLE HAS BEEN PRESSED SLIGHTLY OFF-CENTRE ON THE B-SIDE

THAT MEANS "SPINNIN' TOP" WILL NEED A SMIDGEON OF TWEEKING TO PLAY CORRECTLY

PLEASE TAKE THIS IN MIND BEFORE BIDDING

60s PHILADELPHIA GIRL GROUP NORTHERN SOUL

ORIGINAL U.S. PROMO

Audrey Brickley       Shirley Brickley

Rosetta Hightower (lead vocals)  

THE LADIES' ONLY 100 M.P.H. STOMPER

THIS WAS THE GROUP'S DEBUT SINGLE WITH THE ABOVE LINE-UP

AUDREY BRICKLEY (SHIRLEY'S LITTLE SISTER) HAVING REPLACED YVONNE YOUNG

THE OFFICIAL B-SIDE IS IN ANOTHER TERRITORY ENTIRELY

AND CAN ONLY BE DESCRIBED AS A REAL STOMPER

IT EVEN OUT-STOMPS THE GEMS' "I'LL BE THERE"

THIS SIDE WAS WRITTEN AND PRODUCED BY BILLY JACKSON AND THOM BELL

WITH ARRANGING DONE BY BILLY JACKSON AND JIMMY WISNER

DESPITE IT BEING A NON-STARTER IN THE STATES

THE SINGLE GAINED A RATHER HOPEFUL BRITISH RELEASE ON THE PLANET LABEL

AND YET AGAIN ON MOJO EARLY IN 1972

BOTH BRITISH RELEASE MADE "SPINNIN' TOP" THE A-SIDE

FINALLY, SOME CALLA COPIES SPELL THE TITLE DIFFERENTLY - AS "SPINNING TOP"

THIS SIDE HAS BEEN PRESSED OFF-CENTRE

SO IT NEEDS TO BE TWEEKED BY A GNAT'S DICK IN THE RIGHT DIRECTION

THE A-SIDE IS A SUPERB GROUP RENDITION OF "ANYONE WHO HAD A HEART"

WRITTEN (OF COURSE) BY BURT BACHARACH AND HAL DAVID

AND ORIGINALLY RECORDED BY DIONNE WARWICK IN 1963

ALTHOUGH IT WAS CILLA BLACK'S COVER THAT TOPPED THE CHARTS IN THE U.K.

THIS TRACK WAS PRODUCED BY RICHIE ROME AND JERRY WILLIAMS

AND ARRANGED BY RICHIE ROME

THIS SIDE PLAYS PERFECTLY

THE ORLONS

"ANYONE WHO HAD A HEART"
