Me Oh My - Where Can It Be?

[Geoff_W]

Hi all
For sometime I’ve been trying to track down one of the Shadows’ lesser known vocal numbers called ‘Me Oh My’ that was from the pantomime Aladdin and released on the LP at the back end of ’64. Having ploughed my way through numerous websites over the last couple of months, I’ve discovered it has been included on one or two compilation CDs or added as a bonus track here and there over time. But, as I’ve then been unable to locate any of these albums for sale anywhere on the planet I can only assume that any CD with it on has long since been deleted from the catalogues.
So, I’m turning to my learned friends and asking does anyone know if this track is still commercially available anywhere, either on a CD or as a download? Thanks in anticipation of your help - I really would like to get back to leading a normal life!
Cheers
Geoff

Hi Geoff

It is certainly on the Magic release the sound of the shadows, as one of the bonus tracks
Hope this helps! (maybe still available from leo's also recently been sold by amazon)

Hi Dave
Thanks for your reply. I've checked out Leo's Den but unfortunately it doesn't appear anywhere on their database and the last time I looked on Amazon they were asking over 90 quid for that album! Perhaps not.
Cheers

Probably still too dear, but Amazon are selling used Shadows Vocals CD (including Me oh My) for £35 and used from £28 or so.
Hope this helps.

Hi all
My thanks to everyone who's offered help and advice in my quest to get hold of this track - I now have it. Once again it shows what a great community we're all part of.
Ironically, The first time I saw the Shadows was when they were in Aladdin at the Palladium so I guess that makes Me Oh My the first number I saw them play live
Now there's a possible new thread...........
Thanks again
Geoff
