maxxi Posted June 21, 2014 Share Posted June 21, 2014 Like both but prefer the earlier one.Weird thing about versions - yes there are lots of them and that's as it should be but I thought I was going nuts seeing Susan Cadogan on one of those retrospective TOTP shows as the song was way faster than I remembered it - but this just shows there were two speeds back when the BBC were afraid of anything that wasn't upbeat enough: Trojan and TOTP.

maxxi Posted June 21, 2014 Share Posted June 21, 2014 Yes I know i shouldn't be posting this late but it's friday and i have just discovered tequilla martinis - here's 2 more versions of a song I loved back in the early 80s (local-ish band who never got any recognition) and I prefer the later, slightly more up-tempo and brassier version with the realistics - original - with the realistics Link to comment https://www.eastdulwichforum.co.uk/topic/7285-in-praise-of-reggae/page/12/#findComment-757894 Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sorehead Posted July 24, 2014 Share Posted July 24, 2014 who remembers King Kong 'Trouble Again'? That was my era, mid 80's early digital sound.

Jeremy Posted July 25, 2014 Share Posted July 25, 2014 I've always liked ska, but I've been listening to a lot more reggae since I realised that it helps get my baby daughter to sleep. Alton Ellis and Max Romeo work well... as do the more soulful moments of Burning Spear, and any repetitive dub stuff (Lee Scratch Perry, Scientist). But I'm afraid to say, Sorehead, neither of us can get along with the 80s stuff with all the tinny DX7 synths.

I'm with you, 80's digital stuff is skank Link to comment https://www.eastdulwichforum.co.uk/topic/7285-in-praise-of-reggae/page/12/#findComment-768185 Share on other sites More sharing options...
