Hi bredas...

Just found a 7" on an unknown Canadian label called *Black Rose* with a tuuuuffff dub cut to Mystic Eyes' *Forward with Love*... Here is a sample:

It seems it was released on a LP called Prime Minister http://www.algoriddim.com/album.php?album_id=822 that doesnt appear on RA.... Do any of you have it? Is it the same version as my 7"?

Thanks!

Looks like a homemade comp...

There are quite a few listed on Algoriddim.

Black Rose was distributed out of Joe Gibbs record store in Toronto on Eglinton (in a back alley) and is a sought-after label for their Risco Connections releases on 12".

In case you didn't realize, that's Mr Perry at work in that.

'Forward With Love' also available on a Warrior 12".

I can confirm Jordandance post.
Mystic Eyes w/The Upsetters 'Shining Light' on Black Rose 7" also floating around out there.

Greetings Litelet,
I have an MP3 of this same track that is named, "Feeling Happy Dub". I was never quite sure of it's orgins.

Roots,

... it came out in '79 on a 56 Hope Road 7" as Feeling Happy - Mystic M / version
the Black Rose is certainly a nice extra, specially for that deceivingly low volume intro that can cost you your speakers ... but the 56 Hope Road holds the real Perry treasure, the DUB ! of which i had posted a part before but noone said a word ... http://media.putfile.com/An-Angry-Dub

... Litelet drop me a line if interested i've got a EX+ spare copy of the Hope Road

Jordan, of course I realised Perry was at work... Im not the no1 specialist of Perry and Im not every time absolutely certain when a recording come from the Ark but this one is too evident! It sound exactly like the session that appear on Roots Rock Reggae documentary.

Never heard of the Warrior 12", I guess its not under the name "Mystic Eyes", I've seen few of their release with other names... Mystic M if Im right, A. Johnson of course... and on the 7" they're named mistic eye.



Thanks much for all those infos. I wasnt expecting so much! And definitely a tuff dub... Love those rockers with an accented one drop on snare drum!
