The Carstairs - Stick By Me Baby

Here is the classic and much adored soul group, The Carstairs, perform a classic Blackpool Mecca anthem originally cut by The Salvadors, called "Stick By Me Baby". We also re-recorded them doing "He Who Picks A Rose", and that song by The Carstairs was a cover of the Motown song first cut by Jimmy Ruffin, but initially unreleased. It was a massive Northern Soul monster, but nowhere near in the same league as their iconic classic, "It Really Hurts Me Girl", which was the biggest record EVER at Blackpool Mecca. Back in the day, when there was no internet, we could never locate the group, despite many attempts. In 1998, for the unique one-off Blackpool Mecca reunion, I was just determined to find them, and after four months of searching, I did. Twenty five years after they thought their single had never even been released, they were on stage at Blackpool Mecca, singing it on the Saturday night in front of over a thousand people, in the Highland Room which was only supposed to hold seven hundred. They were moved to tears, especially Cleveland Horne, and founder member Ervin Langley. Tragically, within two years, the two of them had passed away. But at least they got to stand just once in the limelight. It could never ever happen again, it was a one time moment in history and because of the iconic nature of their record, this footage is priceless beyond belief. They performed three songs, "It Really Hurts Me Girl", a version of The Salvadors "Stick My Me Baby", and this one, "He Who Picks A Rose".
