Hi Ian. When are you releasing this genius rework on 7"? It's not often that I agree that a re-working is as good as the original, but this has been done with love, and has blown my dress completely off.
Ian- This Is One Of My Favs!!!!!!!!!!! It Seems To Say Everything About Your Music!! Music That Makes You Smile & Want To Dance!!! You Are The Best...Thank You A Million Times, Take Care-David
I knew this man personally from the Twisted Wheel and what a gent! Also I believe he was the best singer ever to come from the Tamla stable. Miss him forever.
H.A.P.P.Y. sound and by the looks of it Edwmin really enjoyed the re-recording. Thanks for the experience of capturing that late seventies groove....LePB
Really glad to read comments from someone who appreciates what I do.
Would you contact Soren (DiscoBoy1974 is his name on here. You'll find him on my main page in my "friends") and get his free e-mail newsletter about the records I produce ??
I'm trying to build up a small but devoted band of loyal fans to keep them informed of rare unreleased stuff and future projects.
It'll be worth it and it's totally free with no catch.
Hi, I'm Søren from Denmark. I hope that people who like this music will join up to receive "Reaching For The Best - The IAN LEVINE Newsletter". I'm doing a regular e-mail newsletter for people who are fans of Ian Levine's music, just like myself. If you too are a genuine fan of his productions, and you love seeing these videos, then send me a message with your e-mail address and I'll add you to the list. It's all free, it's with Ian's full co-operation, so please join in!
Thanks Ian - that's a fabulous reworking of a fave song of mine - great groove. I had a look on Amazon for the upcoming Norther Soul release and this song doesn't appear to be in the track listing. Can you clarify please? Thanks again for a great vid and soundtrack and hope to hera more about your work.
It's on the DVD. All 24 songs on the CD are on the DVD with full videos, plus there are also three more bonus tracks, of which this is one, in full crisp clear quality, unlike these YouTube compressed versions.
No. The backing singers are Edwin's brother Angelo Starr (who recorded "Stand On My Own Two Feet" for "Northern Soul 2007", plus two others out of Edwin's backing band, "The Team".
sorry folks does nothing for me much prefer the original but thats only my opinion
