RIP Frank - singer of the greatest Northern Soul song ever?

Never heard that track before, but it's a corker. RIP.

Only two genuine copies in the world, last time one changed hands (IIRC it was Tim Browns copy) it went for around £25k.
Originals are on a plain white 'Soul' label - there is a pink bootleg and the UK Tamla Motown release, the boot is worthless, the UK release about £25 on issue and £100 on demo. Not sure how much the picture sleeve demo is now.
(I did an article on this when the last one was sold...)
There's a great story about an 'original' that's glued to a shop wall somewhere in the US too
Oh and that list of tracks above is my Northern nightmare list. Overplayed, all of them. I never want to hear The Snake ever again.
And Chris Clark did the definative version of DILY(IID)....
God is nothing more than an imaginary friend for grown ups.

Just remembered - I shouldn't be posting these for some reason
You know what to do, use the 2nd most popular search engine after Google, the one that hosts videos
