Just to clarify what i'm looking for: I want to find songs done by a group with one producer/studio, then redone by the same group at a later time with Scratch, not songs covered by/with Scratch. My playlist was originally gonna be Studio One vs Black Ark songs by the same artists (see my first post), but I can't find enough examples... Thanks

One for your Studio1 vs Perry tracklist:

The Wailers - Put It On

I reckon there are more Wailers tunes, but I'm not a Wailers-expert..

"put it on" wasn't made at the ark. The topic is Ark vs studio one.

Conscious Man - Jolly Brothers

Sammy,

Studio One vs Ark is ideal (and was my orig idea), but I'll take any remakes by Scratch with the orig artists (so Put it on works). I didn't know there was an older (non-Perry) version of Concious man. How can I find the orig version? Would love to find that one...maybe my all-time favorite tune.

@DWick:
I have seen a seven inch re-issue of the older version. I think it was never released on any CD or digital form.

If anyone knows of a CD with the older Conscious man, please post it. Thanks...Don't know how I forgot about some of these tracks.
