The same song with different titles written by Gene Redd, Rose Marie McCoy
and Jimmy Crosby gets a credit on The Inspirations version.
It came out first in 1996 by Shirley J. Scott as 'Goose Pimples' on
Gene Redd's short-lived Detroit label Stephanye label named after his
daughter. It is believed to be the Funk Brothers moonlighting on the backing
track.
The label only had three official releases although one record (Roy
Handy) got bootlegged on a counterfeit label and three other bootlegs,
totally unreleated to the label, appeared with the Stephanye imprint
(i.e. Golden World Strings bootleg of Checkerboard Squares 'Double
Cookin' (twice) and Richard Temple bootleg of Willie Hutch 'The
Duck'.
It was then released in 1967 by The Inspirations as 'Touch Me, Kiss Me, Hold
Me' on Shelby Singleton's Black Pearl label based in New York which he
set up after leaving Mercury. It was released twice on cat. no.
100 with different B sides and then as 102 and then again on 711 which I
suspect is a 70s repress.
