Nice one Jeff. It's been bugging me ever since I first heard it.
Was but a wee whippersnapper back in the late 70's/early 80's ; I wouldn't
be surprised if 60's vintage soul/r'nb tunes were still getting heavy
rotation on Irish radio back then ; or indeed, that they were even still in
the Irish charts...
I seem to remember Paddy Reilly or Brendan Shine (like Robbie Williams,
only he came with with a piano accordian and Farah slacks) being number one
with "The Fields of Athenry" for almost my entire post-First Holy Communion
primary school education !
You see the Ireland of my youth was poor, debt riddled and depressed ;
nobody had any money for new records... nowadays, we're joint fifth
heaviest cocaine users in Europe, ahead of both the French and the Germans
even. And yet everybody STILL has no money for records !
It's all a little bit Irish ye could say.

First off, you're too late in your historical framework. Roll it back
about 15 years (1966) - Four Tops: "Reach Out (I'll Be There)"
