I guess that most of you will be aware of the Joe Boy CD EPs that were issued in 1997/1998 - they were label-specific and came with a small black and white photo of a featured artist along with a 'juke box style' title strip. They were quite tidy items with good tracks and excellent sound quality.

I have four of them:

JB-1 (Vee Jay)

JB-3 (Constellation)

JB-5 (Vee Jay)

JB-7 (Musicor)

I've done a general search on the internet, but I can't find any info about them.

Does anyone know what the featured labels/tracks were on JB-2, JB-4, JB-6 and JB-8 (if the last one exists)?

Thanks in advance,

Andrew

JB-4 was Scepter. Track listing is 1) Jack Montgomery- "Dearly Beloved" 2) The Camp- "Marching" 3) Judy Clay

"You Busted My Mind" 4) The Anglos- "Since You've Been Gone" 5) Johnny Maestro- "I'm Stepping Out Of The

Picture"

there were 8 give me ten minutes and will find them

Nice - I can't understand why I didn't buy it when it was released.

Thanks for your reply, it seems that they were all worth owning.

ive got all eight bought at the time but dont ask me what i paid i cant remember but dont think were to expensive.wand tracks were jb2 ivories please stay, ed bruce gonna have a party daryl stewart, name it and claim it. curtis blandon long run. clarence reid, im your yes man. jb6 charts livin the nightlife. billy thomson black eyed girl. maqueraders do you love me baby. the gentleman four cant keep a good man down. nella dodds honey boy.

Also contained little postcard type inserts & jukebox strips if I remember correctly.

plus a minature picture of one of the artists mine are all still complete considering how much i moved around at that time. and all compiled by diferrent djs

There were also at least two more planned, but never actually produced. I know this because Glenn Gunton, who was the guy behind Joe Boy, asked me to compile a Swan CDEP. Somewhere I still have the proposed track listing, and the notes I wrote about each track. If I can find it all I'll add it here.

Cheers, that would be nice.

I've had 4 tucked away for since they were issued, I will upload the scans of each part of each CD.

Looking at them again now reminds me why I picked them up in the first place, a real combination of innovative design and artwork that showed of some superb tunes.

Enjoy, Lee

SCEPTER JB4

What I hadn't noticed was that the label image on the inlay card actually sits in the centre of the sleeve, I replaced the Scepter Sleeve to reflect this.

Vee-Jay JB1

Hat's off to the DJ's who appear in these superb CD releases.

Last one I have I'm afraid.

If I remember correctly I think that they were under a fiver each, good value I reckon.
