Lou Lawton – Knick Knack Patty Wack / It’s That Time of Day

Year Released: 1964 (2012 reissue)
Genre: Northern Soul / R&B

Description:
A highly collectible Motown-related 45 released on the Soul subsidiary label, with 1st pressings selling for upwards of €400 and recent sales at €700, “Knick Knack Patty Wack” is a dancefloor dynamo — a stomping Northern Soul favorite propelled by tambourine, horns, and Lawton’s smooth tenor. The song exemplifies the early Motown sound: crisp rhythm section, bright backing vocals, and irresistible hooks. The flip, “It’s That Time of Day,” is a sweet midtempo number that showcases Lawton’s vocal control and emotional warmth.

A true Northern Soul classic, “Knick Knack Patty Wack” has been featured in countless compilations and remains a DJ favorite at all-nighter events across the UK. Its driving beat and clean instrumental passages have made it a sample source for rare-groove producers and mashup DJs, particularly in the mod revival scene.
