Wow! An alternate version of "My World is On Fire". That's one of my all time favourite recordings. One of the few non-Motown recordings that holds it's own against the best of Motown. I'd sure like to hear that! Is it as good as the released version? | ||

I second that emotion regarding "My World is On Fire"--and not only is that song great, but so is its flip, "Go On". And I would also like to hear the unissued take on this classic! Mel--hope you enjoy the venue you're visiting. Could you tell us a couple of the songs that were played (just to make those of us who can't make it to the UK a little jealous)? Best, Mark | ||

WOW...Frank Wilson, the Majestics and Douglas Banks...three good 'uns there! As I mentioned in another thread, "My First Lonely Night" is by Jewel Akens. It's the first American translation of "Sukiyaki". Best, Mark | ||
