Guest dodger Posted June 7, 2005 Posted June 7, 2005 Differant label for me?probbs diff band,good album though! link Smoke/Black Smoke are the same band and it's the same album, I'm fairly certain of that. Probably a contractual thing at the time. 'Sunshine Roses & Rainbows' is a choooooon. Cheers Roger

Markw Posted June 8, 2005 Posted June 8, 2005 are you sure?, I've got both LP's and they look quite different to me? link Doesn't match with your first post "I know of Smoke on Choc.city, havent heard of Black Smoke!"
Guest dodger Posted June 8, 2005 Posted June 8, 2005 Doesn't match with your first post "I know of Smoke on Choc.city, havent heard of Black Smoke!" link Had me wondering as well!! If you've both albums, why not compare the track listings?
Guest remus Posted June 8, 2005 Posted June 8, 2005 Doesn't match with your first post "I know of Smoke on Choc.city, havent heard of Black Smoke!" link My Smoke LP on choc.city just says "Smoke", the labels are reversed also!. Got both LP's in front of me but they look like different folk to me, must be the hats!
Guest remus Posted June 8, 2005 Posted June 8, 2005 Smoke/Black Smoke are the same band and it's the same album, I'm fairly certain of that. Probably a contractual thing at the time. 'Sunshine Roses & Rainbows' is a choooooon. Cheers Roger link prefer "Freedom of the mind", but yes, 'sunshine is a tune'. I put 'sunshine' on a tape for a 45 only collecter some years back and covered it as Voices of East Harlem!, still haven't told him! . My j-bridge LP track-'so glad you came along' plays very qiute!, does yours?

I put 'sunshine' on a tape for a 45 only collecter some years back and covered it as Voices of East Harlem!, still haven't told him! . My j-bridge LP track-'so glad you came along' plays very qiute!, does yours? link Agreed about 'Freedom Of The Mind', another top tune. Only got the Jap P-Vine reissue of the J-Bridge album and the levels are fine on that.

My j-bridge LP track-'so glad you came along' plays very qiute!, does yours? link had this on a tape via Bob Hinsley,don't know about voices of east harlem,we both agreed it was a dead ringer for the charisma band Mick
Guest remus Posted June 8, 2005 Posted June 8, 2005 had this on a tape via Bob Hinsley,don't know about voices of east harlem,we both agreed it was a dead ringer for the charisma band Mick link Wish I'd thought of that, does sound like them too. The lead has a high voice(youngster) and sounds a bit like a big girl!
Guest remus Posted June 8, 2005 Posted June 8, 2005 Had me wondering as well!! If you've both albums, why not compare the track listings? link Haven't seen the re-issue, but compareing both sleeves still not convinced it's the same group!, but if you say they are, that's fine by me. Regards.
Guest Posted June 8, 2005 Posted June 8, 2005 Maybe this will help clear it up: The Tracklist for my record BlackSmoke on chocloate city records(Note: mine is a Candadian pressing): side 1 1. gotta bad feeling 2. your love has got me screamin 3. turn this thing around 4. there it is 5. I don't care(what you do) side 2 1. you needn't worry now 2. what goes around comes around 3. sunshine roses and rainbows 4. freedom of mind Record Cover Record

Is the label track listing reversed?
Guest Posted June 8, 2005 Posted June 8, 2005 Same as mine except it says 'Smoke' not 'Black Smoke'. Is the label track listing reversed? link tracklist seems to be the same. maybe theres a difference with the cover for Canadian press. Wheres yours pressed?
Trafficmaster Posted June 8, 2005 Posted June 8, 2005 Haven't seen the re-issue, but compareing both sleeves still not convinced it's the same group!, but if you say they are, that's fine by me. Regards. link as said earlier they are one and the same only difference is the name on the sleeve and the type set track listing is exactly the same as is the picture of the group buried some where i have the story behind the name think it was a legal problem if i can find it i,ll post it up. regardless of name it is a well reccommended album regards dave lucas
