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

JOHNNY AND LILLY ON WET SOUL..."SUFFERING CITY/SOMEBODY'S BEEN SCRATCHIN' " think that's the one .

The original version is by Johnny Copeland himself. On Atlantic.

Cheers Guys. Anyone got any clips?

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.

No, it's just faster, not better...

Also a great version by Barbara Lynn on the "Here Is" LP (if my memory serves me right)

Sean Hampsey

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!!

Im not keen on the faster version at all, it sounds like kanye west has tried to make it into a rap song!!!

now thats what i call an LP Cover,,,,,,

i must be quite honest here, barbara lynn is an attractive woman!

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?
