Would You Believe - Billy Nichols

Hey do you know Del Shannon's "Home and Away" album? It shared the same producer Andrew "Loog" Oldham and like "Would You Believe" it was shelved for a few years until another album came out in 1974 titled "And the music plays on". From the Andrew Oldham productions 3 Billy Nichols songs were on it, however the only one was on "Would You Believe" which was "Cut and Come Again", which is simply called "Come Again" on "Would You Believe", the other 2 Nichols songs being "Led Along" and "Friendly With You". From what I understand though is "Home and Away" has been issued in recent times on CD as "Home and Away", however I need to check out "Would You Believe" cause I've only listened to it on YouTube.

But I just thought you might be interested in the "Home and Away" album.

I seem to be stuck on these albums at the moment from a possible 300 other CDs.
