Ice Water - Jack Sparrow/ethiopians

[suzifan]

A question here for the ska Big People!
Anyone know if there is a difference between Ice Water by Jack Sparrow and More Ice Water by... Jack Sparrow? Is it the same record pressed under two different names, as Roots Knotty Roots seems to say? Or is it two separate recording...
Many thanks for looking and thinking...

Rob Chapman files this also as being the same recording.
(Never Grow Old)

Thank you Bellyman; if it says so with both authorities it must be so.
At least that is one more thing I arent looking for now...

Do The Wailers backinvocals on this track ?
I have it and i am not sure...

[suzifan]

It is said that they do; I have a feeling that Never Grow Old lists it as being them. I'll play it again tonight and see what my ears tell me.
I know they appear on Joe Higgs' There's A Reward, Bob Andy's I've Got To Go Back Home; I also think they're on Carl Dawkins awesome True Love.
Maybe we need a new thread for uncredited Wailers backing vocals...

Maybe we need a new thread for uncredited Wailers backing vocals...

Heartbeat put out a compilation with just this premise, Wailers & Friends (which oddly seems to be missing from this site).

Thanks for that - had not seen it owing to a morbid fear of CDs...
always find those "and friends" titles a bit odd, like they just rounded up a load of mates and got together to make a record. Mebbe someone should put out an LP that says "And frenemies" or "And some people who happened to be hustlin the producer fi a break at the time" or "And someone the lead singer was trying to get off with" or "And someone who was dubbed on the tune later without the original singer's knowledge"!
