I wonder where they got that extended 12" 'One in the Spirit' mix from. I got an extended version on tape, but I always thought this was some kind of homemade stuff, because I have never seen or heard this extended tune anywhere else... must be extremely rare....

Also have an nice extended version from 'Vibrate On' (maybe from the same record as 'one in the spirit'?)
unfortunally it's not on this 'new' set...

My friend emailed me an eBay auction page, about 4-5 years ago, in which the "One In The Spirit" 12" sold for $605. It was on the U.S. Rockers label.

Thanks for the breakdown Half Pint, I was hoping someone could analyse this set in this way.

If you live in the UK you can obtain it for £26.99 however, as my previous post shows.

[Reggae Rhythm Update]

In the new June/July 2008 issue of XLR8R, the set leads off the Album Reviews section.

Interesting box set. Ordered it from Ernie's today. Bargain: Only 35 dollars!

I second that, nice work Half Pint. (tu)
Makes the set more desirable yet almost even less knowing you're only getting 13-15 tracks.
I guess the DVD footage makes up for it.

anyone see the DVD footage yet with hugh mundell? How long is stageshow performance?
