I contacted a friend last night who's a bit of an expert on Free and Bad Company, as the b side 'I'm a superman for you baby' is credited to Weiss / Kossoff, but he reckons there's no link. Pity as it's about right for just before his first band, Black Cat Bones came about, but I'm sure there would have been plenty of mentions if it was Paul Kossoff..

The YouTube link does all we have - it's Dion's backing band. There must be a back story as to why they're backing someone who doesn't seem to appear anywhere else, but none of the usually wonderful and deep Doo-Wop sites I've seen have anything. It could be that, following the split from Dion, the Belmonts teamed up with Buddy Clinton. As you say there's not a lot of information available. For all we know Buddy Clinton's Belmonts and Dion's Belmonts could even be two different doo-wop groups with the same name. |

Which reminds me - the thing that I find great is that anyone passing through Google about these tracks is that Robs posts come up early, so anyone who wants to dig further knows where to start from. Perhaps even at some point some of the questions thrown up will get answered, |

This track is not wonderful and it's also from the wrong decade, but I'm posting it as it's a bit of a curiosity.
From two years before her first big hit as a songwriter ("Will You Love Me Tomorrow" by the Shirelles) and four years before her first hit and only sixties hit as an artist ("It Might As Well Rain Until September"), here is Carole King's first official recording:- Carole King - The Right Girl (1958) https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=VAaxkgx32_Q |

Other than Clive is Clive Wilson, pretty well all the little info about the duos is on the YouTube links. 'Change of plan' is a typical early Georgie Fame and the Blue Flames R+B/Jazz piece (they're the backing on both sides). The b side 'Little Gloria' is a Ska/Calypso piece. It's the riff from Prince Buster's 'Madness', later covered by Madness themselves.

Original version of Seasons in the Sun - so much better than Terry Jacks' awful bubblegum cover. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Aj22NNLVMvw&feature=fvst Quote:
That's not really the original, which would have been sung in French by the song's Belgian composer, Jacques Brel, but it may be the original English language version. And yes, I have to agree, it's very much better than the version by Terry Jacks. Quote:
Do you know, as soon as said that I had a feeling I would be wrong!! I'm learning so much from this thread and the 70's one ![]() Quote:
me too keep it up guys!Quote:
Here is the original 1961 version from Belgium's greatest ever songwriter:- Jacques Brel - Seasons In The Sun (Le Moribond) http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=6Jl-R2NhUiI Curiosity got the better of me since my last post and I decided to check online to discover who actually did do the first English language version. It wasn't the 1968 version by the Fortunes, it was this one from 1964:- The Kingston Trio - Seasons In The Sun http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=GLfRtK0oxYE |

this a side b side thing is cropping up with startling regularity.
ill try to be more vigilant and sus out which the a/b sides are. tbh rob, you've probably got enough on with just putting the posts together. It's not your fault if they get it wrong, and I'm quite happy to do the background work on the oddities when I can. |
