Yes, I have it. I shall torrent it I think. Is it from 1965? Is it commercially available at all?


Edit: Mmm read some more of this thread... and the link I edited 30 mins ago!! Haha. Seems it was released by Decca in 1964. I am not sure if Decca would be all that bothered as I imagine it is out of print now!

That is a really good song; does anybody have any more information on the band?

This song's a bit too pop to me to listen to it a lot...

General HooHaa as can be seen Rick's song was a first for the band as well.

Adam Mike & Tim: Although this British trio, from Liverpool, had singles released in the USA as part of the 'British Invasion' they didn't chart on either side of the Atlantic. They were actually Peter (Adam) & Mike Sedgewick with Tim Saunders. Mike Sedgewick also had a solo recording career.

Decca F12040 1964 Little Baby/ You're The Reason Why
Decca F12112 1965 That's How I Feel/ It's All Too True
Decca F12221 1965 Little Pictures/ Summer's Here Again
Columbia DB7836 1966 Flowers On The Wall/ Give That Girl A Break
Columbia DB7902 1966 A Most Peculiar Man/ Wedding Day

You CAN pick up the later singles pretty easily but Little Baby is reasonably hard to find. Good Luck
