Jordirip Posted March 14, 2013 Posted March 14, 2013 A tune of pain and angst what a vocal good luck finding one an essential listening Absolutely Flanny. I bought an unknown Jamaican blank a few months back after hearing a few bars on a soundclip. It's bloody gorgeous, the guitar work and strings, in fact the whole production is simply sublime, but I didn't know who it was and it was bugging me. When Charlie put in his request for this I thought I don't know it, I wonder with a title like that if it could be my Jamaican blank. Guess what? it sure was. So thanks Charlie for accidently putting me out of my mysery!! Jordi 3

Mister Fish Posted March 15, 2013 Posted March 15, 2013 Absolutely Flanny. I bought an unknown Jamaican blank a few months back after hearing a few bars on a soundclip.

So thanks Charlie for accidently putting me out of my mysery!! Jordi Jamaican?? Was this the one on ebay with the labels missing? I thought it was the SCM copy. Would be interested to know if it did come out there. One of my all-time faves I started a mix with this recently. https://www.mixcloud.com/albertfish/bittersweet/

Would be interested to know if it did come out there. One of my all-time faves I started a mix with this recently. https://www.mixcloud.com/albertfish/bittersweet/ 100% sure it came out on a Jamaican press. Seen on ebay and nearly bought a copy going back 5 or 6 years.....it was too rough. The one I remember was not a "blank" label as such, although there was no reference to the actual artist or title. Suffice to say there is usually a US copy for sale cheap somewhere on the net......great tune. Edited March 15, 2013 by tiberius

I bought a few reggae things from a guy that had 700+ Jamaican bits up on Ebay and this was also one I had. These all came from a DJ's collection I think as a lot of them had 'Siddys' written in marker pen on them. Actually, this is not blank as such, it has some vague odd imagery on it but no text whatsoever on either side Edited March 15, 2013 by jordirip 1
Tiberius Posted March 15, 2013 Posted March 15, 2013 Actually, this is not blank as such, it has some vague odd imagery on it but no text whatsoever on either side Vague imagery indeed. If I remember correctly it almost looks like a label cut from the picture from a page of a magazine (not glossy) or something....not accurate but best way I can describe it. Thinking back the one I almost bought had some text "stamped" on in ink. Just looked on the net and without any bother found another SCM copy $5 NM condition..........never any need to pay much for this 45. Just waiting for the seller to get back to me.

I was going to say it looked like some random magazine picture stuck on as a label.

Tiberius Posted March 15, 2013 Posted March 15, 2013 (edited) Yes, that's exactly it. I was going to say it looked like some random magazine picture stuck on as a label. Thanks for confirming. Pretty sure I saw a very clean copy on ebay in the last couple of years. Problem being, if they don't include a sound file, it's hard to know what's actually on the disc. I'm fairly confident it was the same 45 though given the unusual, possibly unique, label design. Edited March 15, 2013 by tiberius
Tiberius Posted March 15, 2013 Posted March 15, 2013 (edited) one day will be huge demand prob when dried up It obviously sold well, hence being picked up by Paramount. You do see all conditions, some have been hammered. I guess it's a case of dipping your bread when you see a nice copy with this one. Still don't know if the original person posting the want bought a copy! Edited March 15, 2013 by tiberius 1

Scotters Posted April 18, 2013 Posted April 18, 2013 Wow. Just listened to this for first time and love it, thanks. Hope the order I've just placed at what looks to be very reasonable price works out okay. Mr Goucher played their "Sweet hot lips" 45 out at our local event this Saturday just gone and that went down very well. Bit harder that one by the look of it! Just great. Thanks, Steve.

Kev Cane Posted April 25, 2013 Posted April 25, 2013 Played it last night Brian, had a bit of an all-niter, body clock still thought I was at work after nites. Yes, another fantastic example Kev
jocko Posted April 25, 2013 Posted April 25, 2013 A present from that nice man Gilly many years ago to me, one night at Stafford I think. Was always a stalwart of my early deep tapes. Just fantastic, and if we bring in Truth then we need to raise that to Smoke Im So Lonely, LP version. Fantastic music, and all my early discoveries on the deep journey, thanks to people like Dave M, Eddie Hubbard, Barney etc etc 1
