Yes this is the actual 45rpm on the Marsh label.

This is my mother the lead singer (VESSIE SIMMONS).

I remember when this song came out. I was 12 years old and loved it. We will never see a decade like the 50's and 60's ever again. It was good times and easy living.

@deesthebeesknees I always loved THIS version (Searchers....no lung power to do the song justice). I hope your mom knows how many people love her singing.

The Searchers went to no 1 in ep charts not singles chart

[SeeburgMusic]

WOW What an amazing tune... just crazy to go your whole life without knowing it and then WHAM! Incredible.

@jrgboy The fact that the buyer had to pay more to buy an EP over the price of a single 45 means that the tune would have probably sold even more had it been available as a regular issue 45! Not bad!

@Rotis59 The song was a #number 1 in the UK, but not as a single - it was on an Ep - Entended play release which contained 4 songs, a popular format in the UK in the 50/60's

[Rotis59]

This was written by James Marcus Smith - better known as PJ Proby who had the hit Niki Hoeky in 1967. This song was #1 for the Searchers in England. Proby also recorded demos for Elvis in the late 50s-early 60s.

Ain't gonna kiss ya no mo, no mo. Ain't gonna tell ya I'm yo's fo sho! I've literally worn my 45 of this out.

Strange...I tried uploading this also, and WMG stopped it. I had to laugh, there's no way in h*ll Warner knows the Ribbons. This was a little played West Coast non-hit, I used to think the DJ was saying the Rhythms.
