Side 1. Why You Wanna Treat Me The Way You Do Side 2. Believe In Me
With its stomping backbeat, killer group vocals, wall-of-sound production and energy-packed productions, the Hyperions' "Why You Wanna Treat Me the Way You Do" has long been a staple on the Northern Soul scene. We say staple; while popular with dancers, copies of the Perry Botkin Jr-produced "45" have long been extremely hard to come by (hence seriously eye-watering second-hand prices online). Here the killer cut finally gets the reissue treatment. As with the original release, it comes backed by sweet ballad "Believe in Me", whose vocal harmonies are particularly alluring. While good, it's the A-side that's the really essential cut.
