Seeing Manship auctioning a copy of Jackie Lee's Darkest Days has prompted me to ask a question that has been bothering me since 1976. When the compilation album  - VARIOUS ARTISTS - OUT ON THE STREETS AGAIN - ABC RECORDS - ABCL5192 came out that year it featured the aforementioned "Darkest Days". The version on this L.P. is different to the original single release that I have. Certainly the intro is different with a brass section playing over the Castanets, guitar and drums. Is this version unique to this comp L.P. or did it ever come out in some other guise. The first Compilation L.P. that it came out on in 1972 - VARIOUS ARTISTS - SOUL BIBLE - PROBE SPB 1061 has the same version as the original single. I do not have the 45'S - ABC repress or the Kent re-issue to compare with. Somewhere in the E.M.I. tape vaults there lurks this oddity. Presumably Adey Croasdell knows the answer to this mystery. Any explanation is welcomed. - 

Cheers Chris Frost

    I discussed this a year or so ago on here. To answer your question, the 'Out On The Streets' LP is the only way to get that alternate version of Jackie Lee. As far as I am aware.

    Just makes you wonder what other alternative takes are still hidden away in the vaults. Maybe an Earl Jackson without the girlie chorus 🤩

  • Strangely just bought a copy of this LP at a boot on Sunday .... will have a listen.
