Johnny Clarke "Girl I Love You" / "No Woman No Cry"LPs

Post by Vlad »

To follow up on Al Campbell post, here is another oddity; J. Clarke's "No Woman No Cry" will sell for close to 100 USD; The "Girl I Love You" LP will rarely go beyond 50 USD; Yet, this is a cleaner, better sounding, better produced LP, no doubt;Also super rare...

It's quite simple why one album like 'No woman no cry' fetches high prices, because it never has been repressed in its original style. 'Girl I love You' came as a repress on the WeedBeat label around 1998 and you can't spot any difference to the original release, same cover, same label, same stamper, same matrix.

I own both the weedbeat and the justice (original press); The weedbeat repress has a different title, and not as clean press, although same stamper may have been used. The Girl I love You LP is a keeper, I d sell the weedbeat (with thin layer poorly printed cover) for 5 USD. Respect
