Posted August 13, 200915 yr I just got a copy of Billy sha rae , "do it" on the houglass label, is this a re-issue label as it is only listed as being on the spectrum label.(i,m going off the price guide here so excuse my ignorance.)
August 13, 200915 yr the very same ken, but is that a sister company of spectrum? I found a good piece about it on google,but cant find it no more i think the label is owned by the same person as spectrum,and it came out on triple b as a instrumental sorry i cant be more help.
August 13, 200915 yr the very same ken, but is that a sister company of spectrum? it's not a sister company, it's a contemporary label that picked up material, they also picked up a mandells single. so it's a reissue in a sense, but not a reissue like a reissue at a later date post-hit, more like atlantic picking up a smaller label, except in this case a small label picking up a smaller label.

TripleB is by Johnny Griffith and the Billy Sha Rae Band, I'm guessing that it's a goodly number of the Funk Bros on there given the connections. Tis the best ( and cheapest) version for me Tony

August 13, 200915 yr Yep thats right,got a Johnny Griffith on "hourglass" its shit. Seen a Lily Fields tune on HourGlass too, title escapes me. Tony
August 16, 200915 yr The Gayletts do a nice rocksteady version of Son of A Preacher Man on Hourglass... I assumed that Hourglass was a US label releasing Jamaican titles. Can anyone shed some light on this?
