Guest Paul Posted July 17, 2007 Share Posted July 17, 2007 I just love The Blues Busters, especially "Wide Awake In A Dream", "Lover's Reward", "Soon You'll Be Gone", etc. Paul Mooney Link to comment Social source share More sharing options...
Pauldonnelly Posted July 18, 2007 Share Posted July 18, 2007 no idea but a fantastic tune C/up as Jimmy Dockett - Worried? value? £250ish Link to comment Social source share More sharing options...
Sebastian Posted July 18, 2007 Share Posted July 18, 2007 Seems to be two Blues Busters threads going right now. "Can't Believe You're Gone" was originally issued in Jamaica on the Sunshine label (with both wine-red and black labels). I don't know where the Bra label is from, but some people have suggested Canada. It's a very rare record and seldom comes up for sale. Superb tune.

Guest TONY ROUNCE Posted July 18, 2007 Share Posted July 18, 2007 While we're talking Blues Busters, can I just jump in here and recommend a young UK band, the Dualers, to any BB fans. The group is fronted by twin brothers who sound uncannily like Phillip James and Lloyd Campbell, and who are themselves great admirers of the BBs. They do feature some BBs numbers in their sets, "I Won't Let You Go" and "Soon You'll Be Gone" spring to mind. They also write thier own material and a lot of it is very much in the BBs style. They do regular gigs, but the brothers are also to be found in either Croydon or Bromley High Streets most Saturdays, singing to pre-recorded tapes (unlike their live shows, where they have a 6 piece band - three horns! - in back of them). I'm not big on what might be termed 'ska revival' bands, but the Dualers go beyond being mere revivalists. They are as good as the 'real thing' in every respect. Check 'em out!

The label is from New Jersey and is associated with the Sew City label. Witches and the Warlocks feature on both labels. Link to comment Social source share More sharing options...
Sebastian Posted July 18, 2007 Share Posted July 18, 2007 (edited) The label is from New Jersey and is associated with the Sew City label. Witches and the Warlocks feature on both labels. Are you sure that it is associated with Sew City? I doubt that. The Witches And The Warlock release is the oddest release on the label, everything else I've ever seen/heard on the label is rocksteady or ska. Label listing: BRA 001 - Lloyd & Glen - Minnie Skirts & Go Go Boots / A Good Man BRA 502 - Blues Busters with Byron Lee - How Sweet It Is / I Had A Dream Last Night BRA 503 - Blues Busters - Wide Awake In A Dream / My Girl BRA 503 - Byron Lee & The Dragonaires - Your No Good / Behold BRA 506 - Blue Busters - Can't Believe You're Gone / Soon You'll Be Gone BRA 602 - Blues Busters - Happy Man / My Girl BRA 602 - Blues Busters - Wide Awake In A Dream / Wings Of A Dove BRA 901 - Byron Lee & The Dragonaires - the record / Hang On Sloopy BRA 904 - L. Perkins - Sandra / No Love No Money BRA 1101 - Witches And The Warlock - Behind Locked Doors (vocal) / (instrumental) BRA 2011 - Ken Boothe - I Don't Want To See You Cry / ?

Simsy Posted July 18, 2007 Share Posted July 18, 2007 C/up as Jimmy Dockett - Worried? value? £250ish And in some parts 'Sam & Bill' ... Think £250 bit on the high side, think £150ish nearer. But where'd you see one? Discussed back in April (with clip) https://www.soul-source.co.uk/index.p...ic=47370&hl= Link to comment Social source share More sharing options...
