Can anyone give me a clue, I was at the Rightrack doo in Darlo last night and one of the djs played a really uptempo version of 'The Bottle' I didn't catch the artists name although he did say feat Gil Scott Heron, I have a copy of the slower original Scott Heron but I want this fast one too. Can anyone help me out? shades.gif

I am sure there was another version but I can't remember the name of the group...Brother to Brother maybe? That's a bit faster than Gil's.

Original features Brian Jackson anyway. Do you mean the live version on Arista 12?

Cheers Paul

PS Yes Maverick Brother To Brother did do a version on Turbo ( or one of the other All Platinum susiduries )

Could be the Album version as well ? Full on Jazz, Kitchin sink n all !

Only slightly better than the TTO version.

Can't understand the point in these records.

Does anybody write anything new these days, or is everything a second rate re-hash of whats gone already?

Waste of the black stuff i.m.h.o.

I quite like some re-works, but straight covers I do wonder if there is a need or is it just lack of writing talent. Mind you the original artist or estate do get some money from it I suppose ?

Yup me thinks it is the Brian Jackson on Arista, a lot quicker than my joe boy 12 inch copy and a great dancer too. Damn the sweat was running after that track pass me my towel and broon ale ta..

I could never understand why Brother To Brother was so popular. So bland. GSH has far more power :shades:

I prefer the live version to the disco version. Anyone got a file of the 12"?
