J J Caillier Pusherman. Few Questions


Recommended Posts

70's track - Out about 77. On Jay Cee Records ( Has a picture on the Left side of the Label ) Not true Northern, more R&B. Aquired taste, I love it though. Have a copy. My mate recently bought a copy - cost him £150 I play it out and recently played it at Brid Weekender. Got good feedback. lots of folks ' Not heard that for ages' etc etc

Not looked on as Rare but don't see it too often.

I believe there is another copy on a different label. Official release in the 80's if my memory serves but don't quote me on it !!

Not true Northern, more R&B.

I suppose you mean "R&B" in the broad "Billboard R&B chart" type of way?

Because if anyone consider "Pusherman" to be "rhythm & blues" in the "new breed r&b" sense then I give up...

"Don't Start Cryin' Now" by Slim Harpo is r&b.

Hi Sebastian.

Yes with the R&B - as I said 'more R&B' not 'it is R&B'

Difficult sometimes to label stuff. when it doesn't really need to be.

Be easy to say not as R& B as ... or not as Funky as .... or not as Soulful as ...

Best to appreciate things as a piece of Music etc. Just because its not somebody's cup of tea doesn't make it bad - Personal preference

Speak again somewhere down the line

That could be "Bust The Pusher Man" on Callier

I've got a copy of this.. tbh it's not all that.. Been after a Pusherman for years now.

Mr Whizz,

I played it in the Northern Room and it got a great reception so I suppose by default it is Northern. Rare ?? Don't see it for sale too often at all but only fetches up to £150 (probably due to it not being a top 100 toon) As its not available too often it could be said to be rare but not sure how many are out there. People don't feel safe playing it so doesn't get aired too often so gives the impression its rare !!

Best I can do Billywhizz !!!
