Following the previous post for their Trippin' On Your Love, reminded me of
another cover they did of Gloria Scott's Modern Soul classic "(A Case) Of Too Much Love Makin'" which was on their 2002 album Into The Light (CD only unless you
get the Japanese vinyl issue) they released in 2002. It also came out on 12"
and was reissued on Song Birds promo only CD album on Alan Barnes
Productions ABPPSS (only 50 copies), which seems to be a compilation of
songs from Into The Light 2002 and Paprika Soul from 1991.
Lisa Stansfield [1993] - Too Much Love Makin' [Arista #74321172311]
Lisa Stansfield did a version on her 1993 album 'Son Natural',
predominantly released on CD but a 2 vinyl issue was released in
Europe. I don't think it ever escaped on a single.
Gloria Scott [1974] - (A Case) Of Too Much Love Makin' [Casablanca #NB 9002 / NB-001]
I think I'm right in saying that this was never originally released as a 45
except in Australia, which now sells for large sums (currently £700-£800 on
Discogs but 45Cat lists a value of £962 based on an auctioned one in 2019).
It's a track from her only album 'What Am I Gonna Do' on Casablanca released
in 1974. Six of the 8 tracks were written by Tom Brock including this
one. The album is considerable cheaper than the Australian 45!
Kim Weston [1996] - A Case Of Too Much Love Makin' [Motor City #30359 90012]
From a 1996 compilation by Ian Levine's Motorcity label which also got pressed on a white label 7".
