What a tune, have you heard the Ad-Libs version?
Been meaning to ask Ally, the version of I'm On Nights you posted yonks ago, is different from the one on Lowedges, where did it come from?
isn't it just. early gladys is new to me shamefully and i'm equally ignorant bout the ad libs go at it. i shall seek it out.
the hawley thing was from his website an age ago. i think it exists as the white sessions or something. i'll dig out the rest and pass it on when i get a minute if you like

oooh you're very welcome and ta very much
Ah, I used to have this Hawley track. It perished in the great hard drive disaster of 2007. Ta Ally.
And all the others too. The Nights Are Cold is loverly.
Weird. I got this versh of 'The Nights Are Cold' from his website donkeys' ago too, but never saw the others there. They are, as SA says, loverly - and lawdy, the version of 'On Nights' is magnificent.
Thanks hun x
Very good song and still a great voice. She makes me shiver one more time.
