Please, Please, Please is a James Brown cover, usually performed by Ike & Tina in their concerts as a medley, together with the song „The Wedding.“ The duo promoted it at the Big TNT Show in 1965. The single was released twice, first in 1964 and again in 1970 with a spoken interaction between Tina and the audience on the flip side. The title track was taken from the duos first live album Revue Live and the track from the b-side of the 1964 release was later included into the tracklist of the sampler The Soul of Ike & Tina.
Release Info: This is, I believe, the most exciting disc by this famous duo ever to be issued here. Recorded live at one of their sensational stage appearances in St. Louis, it spotlights Tina at her wildest on this classic James Brown number. The quality of the recording is excellent, as is the backing. The flip is something of an answer disc to their earlier U.S, hit 'A Fool In Love', and rocks along in typical Ike & Tina fashion. Available Friday 21st May, 1965.
