John Bowie – Help Me Pretty Baby / You're Gonna Miss A Good Thing - MD Records

John Bowie 

Help Me Pretty Baby /  You're Gonna Miss A Good Thing 

MD Records 115 

Release Date :  December 2021 

A recent 45 release from MD records featuring a well known name, release notes follow... 

Following our collaboration work with Kevin Fingier on some other tracks, we played him the unrestored takes and asked for his opinion. Needless to say he was pretty excited by the tracks and wanted to see if he could bring them back to there full glory. Between Kevin and JJ at Golden mastering they have done a brilliant job of working with the masters to get a great sound quality without any additional changes to the tracks. 

 We are pleased to deliver both tracks back-to-back on a 45 for your listening pleasure. 

The thumping “Help me pretty baby” screams out of the starting blocks with the brass working overtime to punctuate the classic bouncing bass line. Johns’ pleading vocals beautifully threaded through both, delivering his message to the echo of the backing singers.   

 Flip it over and you get a moody audition take of “You’re gonna miss a good thing”. This version is raw and darker than the released version, its also got that heavier Hammond style keyboard in support of the baseline, but without the high and light glockenspiel type keyboard of the released version.
