50 50 Detroit Emeralds - I Think Of You :puke2:

my opinions on this chart are similar to brians, except im not so keen on chinny chap / glam.

 

'ive been hurt' was a northern soul classic, if i get chance (or unless someone beats me too it...) ill post a youtube vid.. but ive not much time.

 

much though i HATED sweet soul/philly i did like the detroit emeralds, 'i think of you' was quite good imho, but not as good as 'feel the need in me'.
