Joey Gilmore [1971] - Somebody Done Took My Baby And Gone / Do It To Me One More Time [Saadia 9785]


Joey Gilmore was predominantly a blues man but did cut a few soul/funk records early in his career.  This is his first 45 released on Miami independent label Saadia owned by Frank & Martha Williams. Frank Williams was part of The Rocketeers with Willie Hale who backed Helene Smith on Thrills & Chills on Lloyd.

The record also got a national release on Phil L.A. Of Soul.

A nice doble-sider with a mellow crossover / stepper on top side with a funky, driving Northern Soul tune on the flip.
