Guest MattB Posted April 3, 2007 Posted April 3, 2007 (edited) I've looked for a while and ive decided to bite the bullet, I have the mp3 somewhere around, i know its fairly commercial and i probably should know but who is this by, what label and year is it and whats the going price for it? Was there only one version? Many thanks in advance. Matt **Might actually be called show a little pity? Edited April 3, 2007 by MattB
KevH Posted April 3, 2007 Posted April 3, 2007 JOHNNY AND LILLY ON WET SOUL..."SUFFERING CITY/SOMEBODY'S BEEN SCRATCHIN' " think that's the one .
Sebastian Posted April 3, 2007 Posted April 3, 2007 The original version is by Johnny Copeland himself. On Atlantic.
Bjorn Nilsson Posted April 4, 2007 Posted April 4, 2007 (edited) I'm not at home now so I can't check, but I'm pretty sure that the Atlantic and Jetstream are different takes. I think the Jetstream version is faster and better. Edited April 4, 2007 by Bjorn78

Sean Hampsey Posted April 4, 2007 Posted April 4, 2007 The original version is by Johnny Copeland himself. On Atlantic. Also a great version by Barbara Lynn on the "Here Is" LP (if my memory serves me right) Sean Hampsey
Guest MattB Posted April 4, 2007 Posted April 4, 2007 Please someone get the barbara lynn version, i absolutely adore her voice! Thanks for the clips as well guys, i can finally ask for the record now and know who it is, love the break in the middle of the original too!!
Guest MattB Posted April 4, 2007 Posted April 4, 2007 Im not keen on the faster version at all, it sounds like kanye west has tried to make it into a rap song!!!
Guest MattB Posted April 4, 2007 Posted April 4, 2007 i must be quite honest here, barbara lynn is an attractive woman!
BrianB Posted April 4, 2007 Posted April 4, 2007 Always loved Sufferin City by JC. First heard it around 71 at Blackpool Mecca just before I set off on three laps around the tower, hotly pursued by 4 lads in Fairisles and Doc Martins. Burnley and Blackpool lads never got on! It sems to be a record that never really took off? What do you think?
