{"product_id":"wanted-and-needed","title":"Wanted and Needed!","description":"\u003cp\u003eWelcome to \u003ci\u003eWanted And Needed\u003c\/i\u003e, a Northern Soul playlist befitting of any discerning DJ and one that would happily slot into any Soul Night, All-Nighter or Weekender today. Some of our discs were first spun as far back as the Twisted Wheel, such as The Precisions’ floorpacker \u003ci\u003eIf This Is Love\u003c\/i\u003e. Others were unreleased at the time of recording and have found favour in more recent times, such as The Persianettes \u003ci\u003eRun Run\u003c\/i\u003e (originally covered up as \u003ci\u003eYou Better Get Away\u003c\/i\u003e by The Sequins). Also unreleased at the time was Pearl Jones’ infectious \u003ci\u003eGive Me Another Chance\u003c\/i\u003e, a Sidra recording that finally surfaced in 2001 on a company acetate. Jones also appears here on her own composition \u003ci\u003eLet My Baby Go\u003c\/i\u003e as a member of the Embraceables. Another of our featured tracks that eluded the Northern Soul scene at the time is Joey Delorenzo’s feel-good \u003ci\u003eWake Up To The Sunshine Girl\u003c\/i\u003e issued in 1973 on the tiny Mi-Val label but sounds much earlier and probably is. The unknown Delorenzo was reputedly a local car salesman with a passion to become a recording artist. He finally got his 3 minutes 15 seconds of fame in return for a generous deal down at the lot!\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThe playlist kicks off with a real heavyweight of the UK Rare Soul scene, our title track, the legendary \u003ci\u003eJust Say You’re Wanted (And Needed)\u003c\/i\u003e by Gwen Owens. A flop in America, it wasn’t until 1976 that this – already rare – 45 finally made it to these shores and shook the Casino walls. The action is relentless with 100% floorpackers courtesy of The Precisions, Tony Galla, The Capreez, Ronnie And Robyn with their vocal to \u003ci\u003eSidras Theme\u003c\/i\u003e, The Falcons, and Mickey Lee Lane (aka Sounds Of Lane) with his raucous instrumental \u003ci\u003eTracks To Your Mind\u003c\/i\u003e.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Outta Sight","offers":[{"title":"LP","offer_id":50488927224139,"sku":"1051545","price":19.99,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0867\/1120\/6219\/files\/809c1301-fb92-4d91-a637-74cf4b74ec2f_thumbnail_4096.jpg?v=1727633214","url":"https:\/\/shop.roughtrade.com\/products\/wanted-and-needed","provider":"Rough Trade","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
