Earl Zero 's Righteous Work 'alternate' cut ?

Post by Rufus »

Does anyone know where this cut was taken from? The Tubby's mix is something just that POWERFUL! i can't track this version which differs from those on 'Freedom Sound in dub' & 'Earl Zero's Discomixes' (and ranks higher imho!)

It was also repressed on the Addis Ababa label 7" with dub in the mid 1990`s with a red, gold and green label. On a quick look the repress on the addis Ababa (Al Campbell`s) label is still doing the rounds on (not secondhand) reggae sites. http://www.selectors-choice.de has it listed with sound clip, but has sold out.
It might have been repressed once more? These days be carefull because quite a few represses don`t have dubs!!

10x better than the later "Channel One" overdub...
agree totally with you. Beware of the repress on 7" that is of poor quality.

There is a recent third cut too, more modern.

There's also this one from Wax Poetics magazine - well worth the price.

I have the original 7 on Addis Ababa 1975 vocal and dub. If I remember correctly it`s the dub your looking for. Since I don`t have a turntable at the moment I`m going by memory . If anyone else can confirm or not, it`s the dub being asked for!!
