Did this come out on Ra-Bra first or Jay Vee / JV?

And are they both the same versions?

What year do you think this came out?

I don't know which is why I didn't say.

Having seen both the labels, I'd guess at JV first, but it would be just that, a guess....

Blues Records 1943-1970 say

Chicago 1970

Same recordings (doesn't say which label was first ...)

Previous posting off Marcus Gora reckons Ra-Bra is the first release.

Thanks everybody.

I don't know either, I've actually only ever seen it on J-V. Ra bra was owned by Gene Ammons, I think. Besides a bunch of Gene Ammons 45s, the only other record I know on the label is by the Allusions (Gary group who were also the Swinging Allusions).
