Shit, I only knew the version from Swing Out Sister 😬
Barbara Acklin - Am I the Same Girl, 1969. How the instrumental version of this track became a hit while this version languished in semi-obscurity is beyond me. Damn fine rhythm for sure, but Acklin’s testament to reconciled love is more than just icing to this delicious cake.

"Am I the Same Girl?" is a popular song written by Eugene Record and Sonny Sanders. First recorded in 1968 by Barbara Acklin and then a year later by Dusty Springfield, "Am I the Same Girl?" charted most successfully in the US as a 1992 release by Swing Out Sister. 
Swing Out Sister recorded their cover of the song for their album, Get in Touch with Yourself. Lead vocalist Corinne Drewery has acknowledged Dusty Springfield as a major influence but says it was a chance hearing of the Acklin version at a disco specializing in Northern soul that convinced Drewery and her band partner Andy Connell to remake "Am I the Same Girl?"

BOOK - Kitchen Confidential (by Anthony Bourdain) and Bourdain: The Definitive Oral Biography (by Laurie Woolever)
Tumblr media
From a flirty kiss on the hand at the ice skating rink to full-blown makeout sesh at Flip's place a few days later. Things were moving fast between Sam/Flip/Phillip and Nancy. Ooooh Nancy. Have fun girl.
At that moment, Anthony was moping at the comic book shop with pal Dae Bennett (2nd son of famous singer Tony Bennett who also lives in Leonia. Dae and Tony were often in detention together at school.) Tony loves comic books and even posted an ad in the paper seeking old comic books. He also really likes trying to draw and create his own.

BOOK SYNOPSIS - In Kitchen Confidential chef Anthony Bourdain recounts all his culinary adventures. The other Bourdain book is also recounting his life but does so entirely with quotes from family, friends, coworkers.
BOOK EXCERPT - This time the excerpt is from Down and Out in Paradise: the Life of Anthony Bourdain by Charles Leerhsen.
Posting from this playthrough more often than the others at the moment because there's just more going on in the main character's life right now. Different books have different busy times.
IRL TIME/PLACE - 1968, Leonia, New Jersey
MY SAVE TIME/PLACE - Sim Year 50 / Sim Day 5706 / Winter D21 / Sat. / Newcrest

55. Soulful Strut by Young Holt Unlimited debuted Nov 68 and peaked at number three, scoring 1065 points.
The group formed in Chicago and had three chart entries 1966-69. Their first entry, Wack Wack, as The Young Holt Trio, peaked at number 40 in early 1967.
Barbara Acklin's Am I the Same Girl used the track as background for her added vocals. It charted Feb 69 but did not make the top 40.
