endure Posted November 25, 2006 Share Posted November 25, 2006 The Beatles- You Really Got a Hold on me is just comig to an end. Up next is............. Prince- Girls And Boys get outta here...the Beatles was a cover of the real thing released in late '50s...can't remember her name but a real R&B classic... 'You really got a hold on me' was written by Smokey Robinson and released on Tamla Motown by the Miracles in November 1962 - recorded at Hitsville USA in the Motor City!

Jockstar Posted November 25, 2006 Author Share Posted November 25, 2006 The Beatles- You Really Got a Hold on me is just comig to an end. Up next is............. Prince- Girls And Boys get outta here...the Beatles was a cover of the real thing released in late '50s...can't remember her name but a real R&B classic... how about the Stones early 60s cover of 'You better move on'?...in the same grove as the original...fantastic... useta listen to all these originals on my transistor radio while on my paper round 5 am in Pasadena...later in the day to be brutalised by hyena primary school teachers that disapproved of negro popular music... This song was of course a cover. The Beatles used to play covers in their early days. When they played in Hamburg it was mostly covers. The reason i was listening to this song was that they performed it live at the BBC. If you listen to the Beatles early stuff you will see a few covers. I dont mind bands doing covers aslong as they dont kill the song. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I know shaun was lyricist/vocalist. what I meant was the good things about black grape and the mondays ie the actual music was down to the other band members. come on, you're not going to say shaun has a voice of an angel are you? the mondays and black grape = good music, <deleted> vocals.

(sorta like what they do in LA with parts in general) what was the song? 'I sold my heart to the junkman, so I'll never fall in love again...'

(unquote) a post in the motors forum and in popped pre-Beatles motown with a girl group...anybody got a group name or release year? Rather unique lyrics, one must admit... Patricia Holt and Cindy Birdsong first formed a group called the Ordettes in Philadelphia, Pennsylvania. In 1959, Nona Hendryx and Sarah Dash joined after leaving a group called the Del Capris. Patricia Holt had her name changed to Patti LaBelle after the group became The Bluebelles. Though the first single was "I Sold My Heart to the Junkman" (released as the Bluebelles), LaBelle relays in her memoir (Don't Block The Blessings) that the group didn't actually perform on the original track. As she tells it, the song's producer had recorded it with Starlets and renamed them the Bluebelles, but the group left upon the single's release. Hope this is the one you're after.

Just think though, what were either without those lyrics....? and, what would they sound like with someone who really could sing. That was the charm....! Just imagine Mick Hucknall or Jay Kay singing wrote for luck or 24 hour party people. Imagine bleedin Chris Martin getting his chops round The Squirrel and the G Man album.....?
