They're Justin Hinds and The Dominoes, and it was released under their name also. Massive hit in Jamaica, but in 1963; and The Selecter recorded it.

I'm glad that several of you like Loving Spoonful. Interestingly enough, Diana Luke then played Do You Believe in Magic? on her 60s show last night!

no info 66 - english tea - no youtube vid It was a Page One production (though on CBS) for Dick James Music. Larry Page (of Troggs management among others) and Dick James owned Page One, which was a label too. The b side was called 'Hump A Dink' co-written by Larry Page himself. I guess that probably means it was released after March '66, when 'Release me' got a stranglehold on the charts and radio.There's only 7 Google hits for the band or record - one to a sale list which notes unhelpfully 'beaty'. |

![]() That's what happens when you're disturbingly looking forward to the referendum results coverage. ![]() ![]() However - that makes the title of the b side even odder. Why would Page etc make a jpke about Engelbert when he'd not been a big star at that point, and was barely in the public eye? He did the Knokke song contest in July '66, but that was hardly an event that got UK media coverage.*note to self - 0/10, must concentrate* |

maybe the b side was a referrance to the engelbert humperdink?
![]() I can't imagine it's anything to do with the Vietnam War (I apologise, I can't think of another acceptable way to raise that), so either it's as you say or a private joke or dig between Larry Page and Gordon Mills (Eng's manager). After all they obviously knew each other, being in the same trade. Puzzling over a lost song with few clues and no real chance of hearing it, ever. ![]()
