Personal Touch / Donna McGhee / Rainbow Brown [1976/78/81] - It Ain't No Big Thing


"It Ain't No Big Thing" is a song written by Patrick Adams and Brenda Cahree which was the first release on Adam's label PAP in 1976 by a female group called Personal Touch (which was their only release). It was also recorded two years later by Donna McGhee on her only album "Make It Last Forever" and again in 1981 by a female group Rainbow Brown formed by Adams which included Fonda Rae on lead vocals with Yvonne Lewis, Lucy Martin, Ullanda McCullough. They released it on their only, self-titled album and also a B side to their only single "Til You Surrender" which is quite hard to find as it didn't appear on the 12" version or the 7" promos so is only available on issues and there are none listed on Discogs, indicating it's scarcity.

The Personal Touch 45 sells for around £200-£300 with only four currently list on Discogs ranging between those prices. 

The Donna McGhee album is also quite sought after fetching up to £200 on US vinyl on Red Gregg and up to £120 on UK Anchor. 

As a bonus I've thrown in the Jay Negron's  extended version of Kenny Dope's 2006 re-edit as, surprisingly, there is no 12 " or extended version of this track, although Donna McGhee's album version is 6:30! Danny Krivit did a Re-edit of it in 2012 which I've also included below.
