We follow up Carolyn Crawford's recent big selling Kent 45 'Get Up And Dance' with another top class Mickey Stevenson production on 'It Takes A Lotta Teardrops'. The Leon Ware and Vicki Basemore song was also covered by Kim Weston but neither version was released at the time. The recording is in a classic Motown style and this could have been the reason why it was shelved in 1972, being somewhat dated - though still perfect for Motown and Northern Soul devotees. The flip is from Carolyn Crawford's collaboration with Hodges, James & Smith in 1971 when the foursome released two 45s on the M'Pingo label. 'I'm In Love' was a more current sound for the time and is perfect for Modern and Crossover rooms today.
