Errol Dunkley - Repatriation on 23 Talent question

Post by jordandance »

Good Day Everyone,

I found a 7 inch of this on 23 Talent Records and am rather impressed with it. Is it the same one as the one on Jah Guidance? Is this a Tommy Cowan thing?

The Jah Guidance cut is a later 70`s version, recorded at Channel One, likely backed by the Roots Radics.

I dont think the Over 23 Years labelled cut is a Tommy Cowan production, the `talent` credit on the label is just coincidental. It also came out on Count Shelly label in the UK, minus the strangely eq`d version side that appears on the Over 23 Years issue, you can see `Shelly` written on the run out groove of that issue too.

It would be a nice dub if it didn't like it was 50 rooms over. Thanks for the info, Stoneman.

Yuh, that chune is really tuff... couldnt afford a copy yet, but hope one day... Your question is great, I was wondering the same... that 23 label version is then with no doubt the best... Need a deep riddim, not a rockers.
