Guest Doctor Bird Posted March 2, 2005 Share Posted March 2, 2005 Heard Cleveland Robinson - Boy was issued four times on Nosnibor, are these all the same versions (guess not), and what's the value for the ultimate version (just heard the one on Soulclub--> awesome), what about his other stuff on Nosnibor (with exception of Love Is Trap), other goodies by him on the label???????

Guest enchantedrythm Posted March 4, 2005 Share Posted March 4, 2005 Best version IMO is nosnibor 106 light blue label slow version from millionaires CD the gasher link 106 is good, but i prefere 1011b, production is better and something seems more polished, which in turn makes it more earthy, the way it should be. Dont know if the other releases are any less or more, ive only ever come across the two, well three if you count the two different labels on the blue 106, or is one not as it seems??? Flip side of 1011b is" Somebody to Love " which is also a great track. Incidently the misses associates "boy" with "The Snake", both in structure of the sound and also the lyrics echo a similiar trait----fascinating eh?

I don't have 106, but presume as so similar, is also arranged by Bert DeCoteaux. The other is 1012 (green label) arranged by Gene Page, which is a more 70's style, bits of wah wah & the like. Also has another version of 'Somebody to love' on other side, which is growing on me. May have it's day. My fave is 106,more punchy, obviously being the most expensive & the one I don't have. I seem to remember there being a Cleveland Robinson site, run by his son. Which always advertised a forthcoming CD that never materialised. But also remember reading somewhere of somebody being ripped off by the site. Don't know if still on net, but some nice info. Anybody have/seen the LP? - Is it any good Mike Link to comment Social source share More sharing options...
