This B side to Harold's only hit is a golden oldie in my family. My mom still ponies to it like she did in the '60s.

Linda Dee

I think My Babe was the A side. We also danced to the Love You So flip side. Amazingly, a two sided one-hit wonder. (Does that count as two hits?)

Erastus Erazade

@Linda Dee , Ron Holden follow up HIT was True Love Can Be ; is not a one hit wonder. Also did So Dearly, duet , Rosie and Ron on Del Fi label. Rosie p, of ( Angle Baby fame) .
