Heptones Song ID ("End of the Line" ???)

Post by cazevedo »

I've had this mp3 by the Heptones for some time now. I was recently asked to cite the source when I realized the ID3 tag simply said Studio One. The song title is indicated as "End of the Line" and listening to it carefully, it may or may not be correct. I cannot find any information on a Heptones song by that name. Any ideas?

Here's a 24kbps/22KHz of the song in question (444KB):

I think it might be "Man In The Moon" by the Heptones which was a Studio One 7" not on any of their albums. The vocals on your MP3 include the words Man In the Moon. If you want to be sure then Rob Chapman should know.

The dub of Man in the Moon is "Space Dub" which is on JUK's INCORPORATION PART 2. So if you've got that you can check it is the same rhythm. I've only got JUK's PART 1 so I can't help on that one.

Just checked and it is definitely Man In The Moon which was also known as "The Hand Of The Lord"> If you listen carefully the words that sound like "the end of the line" are in fact "the hand of the lord".

Rob Strictly-Rockers: Thank you very much for this information. I can finally put this to rest (and re-tag my mp3).
