Nolt like playing all your trump cards (wants) at the same time. The price has probably just doubled since you've mentioned the name with alt the Hawks circling
.Lol Pauly P has 2 copies of this I think, and I think he got them for about 5 pence from a bargain bin. There should be a thread about it someowhere.
Can I be the first snob to say it isn't a patch on the original northern soul tune, and someone who does a cracking new funky version will make themselves a fortune.

I might still have a couple hehe. I sold a copy to someone off here who has since sold it to someone else off here lol.
I remembered it from going to the Havana in Middlesborough in 90/91 and knowing was a copy of the Lloyd Michael`s northern soul tune and took me 11 years to even find out who really did this one with added help from this site too! it became an obsession to find this beast then it turns up cheap as I was looking for white label cat no PRE 1020. Its not even well produced but its just memories and that bassline phones:
i even bought a dreadful version by 2 to the power
There`s Front without a capital by Hooligan X also but its not that good.
There`s 9 people on discogs with a copy of the Flasher and Colin Patterson, Whoever played it at leeds warehouse (DJ Roy I think), Dale at the disc, Ste H, Cano and couple of others I know so there are still 285 copies out there

hehe, thanks for the info there, wish i still had some of the old havana tapes! can one of the 285 people please get in touch!
It used to get caned on the Sheffield Pirates cos Hooligan X used to play the City Hall Ballroom. I only found out the name of it when of all places it got played on the Colin Patterson Essential Mix (in 94/95) and I checked the tracklisting, but only ever found the actual vinyl in 01.
yep,remember this from my havana days,if my memory serves me i think a lad from yarm,Sav i think he was called helped them out on this,got a copy from a mate a few years back,purchased from mr Colin Patterson who was working at Massai records in the boro at the time! Memories!!!
I’ve got a copy of Hooligan X flasher in my loft . It’s the exes …. Well mine now . I’m from Boro . I knew Mc Leehi Ed, wow, 2 copies of this! id kill for one of em! lol
I'm not particularly keen on the tune itself but one day will buy a copy just as it's from Boro.
