dthedrug Posted March 26, 2011 Posted March 26, 2011 Hi All ... Can anybody tell me anything about the unreleased PEOPLE 119 Barry Smith acetate, and was the B side ever issued? as the A side has PT 1 & PT 2 on the US release, The PAGE ONE DEMO is a classic and sounds great to my (I love UK Northern) ears, it take a couple of plays to turn it from a run of the mill 6ts POP record to find a brilliant Norther Record with CLASS, anyone (cant do sound clips) DAVE KIL
Blake H Posted March 26, 2011 Posted March 26, 2011 I remember Searling appealing for a copy of Barry Smith on his Radio Hallam show in the early eighties, he also mentioned that it was on UK Madagascar. Been looking ever since to no avail, I guess your pre release copy is the nearest it came to a full release. I'm sure Sean Hampsey/ John Benson will know more details. BH

Derek Pearson Posted March 26, 2011 Posted March 26, 2011 Unable to add anything re the UK release of Barry Smith. However as I'm sure you know, it came out stateside on Shane 1301 which was a blue label. Look out for the much better female version by P.J.Smith also on Shane this time on a yellow label S-100. onwards, derek x
dthedrug Posted March 27, 2011 Author Posted March 27, 2011 Hi All ...cheers for input info, I have also another Barry Smith in a yellow label SHANE a dreadful version of Tom Jones Hit "it's not unusual", now i have seen a US copy it takes the edge of the DISK, but if you collect the island & sue label from start to finish along with the unreleased stuff, if it exists it will be in this format and not a white label, for some reason i have never got round to completing the full PEOPLE label, they put out some nice LPs and like Con-tempo the 12" and LPs are hard to get now, Some records are just so elusive to the completest, this is a good example, as to it's value. i ain't got a clue as I say this is a completest record that just has the right sound for to-days taste, perhaps Ranking Johnny may want it to auction it for me?? :ph34r:DAVE
