Anyone heard it?

[LDJB]

Dunno but if you aint bidding, I will

Yeah it's an alright funky thing.

The Baby T boys seem to like it a lot and can shift it on for coin.

I wouldn't be surprised to go this for a little wedge, all sniped of course.

Go for it... Can't really afford to spend more than the opening bid anyway (my record budgets been cained already )

Do me a CDR if you win it tho

it's a good spooky sounding hammond funk inst. - quite common though.

That's interesting - I've got an early 70s UK issue of this on DJM with a different b-side ('Season Of The Rain', an Elton John song that I don't think has appeared anywhere else).

The Banana Bunch was a pseudonym for a real psychedelic band that were managed by Larry Page - I think it was the ones who did the song 'Magic Spectacles'......was it The Nerve?

[The Divine One]

Nope, think they were the Nite People, and Season Of The Rain came out on a 45, on Page One predictably. Recycling was hip back then too!

That's the chaps! Was Season of the Rain a Nite People 45 too? It's got the hardest bass drum work I've ever heard in it - one record player I had couldn't handle it!

Yeah.

Certainly in my all-time band Top 10 - they did some awesome stuff!
