RSO Records - RSO 051
One member of 45 Cat has posted that he actually owns a copy of this record!
It is looking like a few of these actually did get pressed, contrary to popular belief, as a fan ( and contributor to the Salvo Re - Issue series ) actually remembers seeing a copy and it was on the regular R.S.O. label! But it would have been a Belgian test pressing, as it wasn't released on RSO in the UK, because it has further transpired that a one - off deal was probably struck between Chas and Robert Stigwood, as Nod has recently told that it was due to also be released in Belgium on the RSO Label in November, 1979, but for some reason this never came to fruition.
UK, December 7th, 1979 - 7"
Barn Records - BARN 011 / Lyntone - LYN 7650/7651
This Party-type record, released in time for the Christmas market was the eighth single on their Barn label, and it would be their last on this label. The A-Side was originally going to be called, "Rockin' Okey Cokey" and was not to be found on any album, at that time. The B-Side, "My Baby's Got It" was taken from their then current "Return To Base" album. The record reached Number 83 in the UK Singles Charts.
A Portland Studio Acetate!
December, 1982
Speed Records - SPEED 201
The song was re-issued three years later, in 1982, on the Speed label, but this time around, it featured a Live version of Get Down And Get With It on the B-Side. It was released in 7" and 7" Picture-Disc formats.

My thanks to Chris 'The Historian' Selby for his relentless research. It is said, in certain circles, that Walsall Archives have a seat reserved specifically for him and that Wolverhampton archives consult him when searching the Express & Star.
