That Certain Thing is the third album by guitarist Snowy White, released in 1987.[1] It was the last album before White's change of direction towards blues music with the Snowy White Blues Agency. CD releases in 1997, 2002 and 2005 featured a different track list with two extra tracks.
The song "For You" had previously been released as a single in 1985 on R4 Records, with the non-album track "Straight On Ahead" on the B-side. "I'll Be Holding On" featured as an additional track on the 12-inch single. The song was a minor hit, reaching No. 65 in the UK.[2] "For You" was released as a single again in 1987, this time on Legend Records, with "Sky High" on the B-side, again a non-album track.[3]
Another single was issued by Legend Records in 1987, with two non-album tracks, "I Can't Let Go" / "Rush Hour". The 12-inch release also featured an instrumental version of "I Can't Let Go", and another track, "Changing Ways".[4]
