The Neville Brothers

Although this track is a Neville Brothers recording, it is frequently called an Ivan Neville recording among Northern Soul collectors in the UK (and elsewhere.)

Click HERE for further information about this rare 45.

An edited version of this track is available in the UK on the "Essential Modern Soul Volume 1" (Goldmine Records) compilation. I am unsure whether the track was sourced from vinyl or if the release is considered authorized.
