Alias Ducie - Why Don't You Write - Production Demo / Why Don't You Write - 7-INCH SINGLE [7 inch Vinyl Disc]

FIRST EVER OF A NEWLY DISCOVERED MASTER 'Why Don't You Write' was originally recorded and released in 1971 by Lee Bates on Joe Banashak's New Orleans based Instant Records. It has over time become a sought-after Northern Soul collectable. It was produced by the unlikely sounding Alias Ducie (Deucie) who also released one obscure 45 on Instant, 'Then You'll Be Mine', credited to Alias Ducie & The New Orleans Poets. In a recent search of the Banashak master tapes in the Charly vaults we found an incredible unreleased version of 'Why Don't You Write' performed by Ducie, possibly as a guide track for Bates. We also found another unreleased master, 'High' and over a dozen unreleased Lee Bates masters. Here we both versions for the very first time. And there's plenty more where this came from!Another exclusive from Charly Records. Album Tracks 1. Why Don't You Write - Alias Ducie 2. A Why Don't You Write - Lee Bates
