This single "Help Me" has been the source of speculation and discussion among some Northern soul collectors and enthusiasts.
It is composed and produced by Johnny Northern and Ralph Bailey and arranged by Robert Banks.
Record World mentioned in the September 17, 1966, issue that the label's two newest releases were "Too Much Too Soon" by Shirley & Jesse, and "Help Me" by Al Wilson".
[9][10] Because of the Northern Soul crowd's enthusiasm with the song, and the belief that the real Al Wilson himself sang it, he had to quickly learn the song and performed it at the Cleethorpes Northern Soul Weekender where he was booked.
He did inform the crowd that he was not the same Al Wilson who recorded this Northern Soul favorite.
