583. The Vows: “Tell Me”
The germ of a good song that needed some more polish, and a group who needed another couple of takes to get everything just right. (5)

438. Brenda Holloway: “Sad Song”
A super record, dripping with bitter ferocity; considering the tender loveliness of the A-side, this is very much the other side of Brenda Holloway in every sense, but no worse for it. Vivid and unforgettable. (8)
369. Little Stevie Wonder: “Castles In The Sand”
If you were to suggest this was a piece of throwaway novelty fluff there’s not much I could say in its defence, but nonetheless I think when it’s over, the good just about outweighs the bad. (5)
368. Patrice Holloway: “(He Is) The Boy Of My Dreams”
It’s not a bad little song, but it’s so badly performed that it’s actually painful to listen to in places, and that all comes down to the vocalist. Sorry, Patrice. (2)
367. Patrice Holloway: “Stevie”
Ultimately a weak record which is all the more frustrating because it could have been genuinely superb. A pity. (4)
