"Nothing but a Heartache" is a Pop and Northern Soul hit originally released on the Deram Records label in November 1968 by The Flirtations — "Nothing But a Heartache" just missed the UK Top 50, peaking at #51 However the track reached the Top 40 in both the Netherlands (#36) and in the US, where it spent two weeks at #34 in late May 1969 during what was then considered a lengthy 14-week run on Billboard's Hot 100 – especially for a hit that did not reach the top 30. The single did, however, reach #31 on Cash Box and #25 on Record World.
In late April 1969, "Nothing but a Heartache" reached #3 in Boston on WRKO-AM. In Canada it reached #31 and in Australia it charted at #97. Two promotional videos—one in colour and one in black-and-white.
In October 2017, American punk rock/hip hop band the Transplants released a cover version of the song.

    One killer group. Imagine..1960's and the strength it took for 3 black girls to leave South Carolina and move to the UK. These girls are as good as any girl group there ever was. Top notch.

    I adore this song, and have only recently heard it---I am 67 years old, and truthfully never heard it back in the day!

    If you're the official channel, could you explain why anyone thought this staging was a good idea? It does nothing to show off the ladies' beauty and grace. By contrast, everyone looks GORGEOUS at the abbey in England. Thank you for posting one of the best songs of the Northern Soul (or any) genre!
