    • 1. Bookie Man aka Whats Wrong With You
    • 2. Bookie Man (Original Version)

    This killer double sider is the first release of the stunning “Bookie Man What’s Wrong With You” on 7inch. It was previously released as a blank label only in 1968 and was wrongly credited to The Bleechers. On the B side, “Bookie Man” is a completely different track and it is a rare and brilliant song in its own right. It is also the first time the two “Bookie Man” songs are featured together on a 7inch!
