"This Man" is a superb uptempo dance track, propelled along by some great vocals and bubbling congas. This is the type of track that was behind the (twisted) wheel of the English northern soul scene of the '70's.
The flip side, "I've Had Enough" is a very cool subdued track that shows Mr Cox also had a way around a ballad. However, when the chorus kicks in, we're treated to some fabulous fuzz guitar and a chord progression that brings to mind "With A Little Help From My Friends". Very good stuff indeed.
from 1969...
WALLY COX - THIS MAN
I'VE HAD ENOUGH

IMDB credits this record to Wallace Maynard Cox, the character actor -- as a 1961 release but correctly on the Wand label. While this seems ridiculously wrong, the specificity of 1961 and getting the label correct makes me wonder what they could be basing this on? Any thoughts?
Also, the Black Crowes 1990 cut "Seeing Things" has more in common with "I've Had Enough" than Cocker's "With a Little Help From My Friends," as it is generally compared.
Thank you for sharing this great record. Why have so many of your upload links begun disappearing?
IMDB is wrong, plain and simple- poor research, carelessness, who knows. Links only stay up for four to five weeks.
