Cultre "Black Rose

Post by Rootsman »

http://www.amazon.co.uk/Culture-Front-L ... ds=culture

So does anyone know anything of this Sonia Pottinger produced "Black Rose" album that is supposed to have legendary status as I am pretty sure I have never heard of it.

I`d be interested to know the tracklist.

Thanks

Dave

First time I see a photo of a label from a supposedly released version. But if I remember correctly (nearly?) all songs were included in this release:

Black Rose..theres a version of it on production something, it says black rose is aka stand up and fight. By version I don't mean dub by the way.

The tracks on the Front Line 2013 "Culture Unreleased Cuts" 7" will most likely be included. (Burning / Can´t Study The Rastaman.)

Side one on the (imaginary?) label seems to be:
(All are indeed on "Trod On")
Black Rose (aka Stand Up And Fight)
Burning (aka Blood In A Babylon)
Jah Alone A Christian
(Wipe Your) Weeping Eyes
No Sin

Thanks, 99thfloor!

Let´s really hope it´s the original Living Dub mix!!!
It´s superb - the remix is not...

Greetings,

the Living Dub is indeed the Sylvan Morris PRE-3 1979 mix.
Also released as Original Living Dub Vol. 1 on Burning Music in 2002.

The Third World bonus tracks are a must have, some tasty dubs and previously unreleased tracks.

Also the Paragons Dubwise is not to be missed, Sly & Robbie in fine style mixed by the great Steven Stanley.

Sound quality is excellent throughout, with informative linernotes by Harry Wise.

The price is nice too. I bought them for €7,50/€8.
Recommended wholeheartedly!

Peace,
DJ

NB
I didn't buy the Culture (yet) as I have all 4 albums already.
But judging by the other releases in this "series" (they are grouped together on the tray-inlays of each release) I don't doubt that it also is excellent.
