Butch has the original acetate.

To answer the original question, John Vincent had an original acetate which had no artist name on it, just the song title typed on it. He named it the Just Bros. He sold the acetate on to Butch in the 80s. Butch made it a big part of his sets for many years. A few months ago, Mark Bicknell was working with the Secret Stash team in the States who have the rights to the original tapes from the Learner family who ran the One-Derful, Mar-V-Lus, Midas etc stable of labels in Chicago in the 60s. On the tapes was "Go On And Laugh" identified as actually being recorded by the Sharpees.
