[Soiree]

Ka=La u gh=Work

[Johoosh]

Black Jade - Contempo LP
Fabienne - Prophecy 12"
Johnny Osbourne - Fally Ranking 12"
Fela Kuti - Expensive Shit/Water No Get Enemy (I swear i read a music blog post online a few months ago that suggested that Fela's back catalogue was going to get repressed soon, anyone else know anything about it?)
Jon E Cash - Spanish Fly/Hoods Up

all that springs to mind atm, a few are on discogs for £30-40+ so not exactly holy grail (compared to the Black Jade LP anyway deary me)

RSD's Living in Unity keep missing out on repressings

Sorry. I'll try and play it out next time I play at a gig that you're likely to be at!

Also, to the person who wants Sheworks 001, I will trade my NM copy for a copy of All Caps 001 or any of the White Material releases... Incidentally, those are the releases I would really kill for atm.

Also Cape Fear & maybe Pulse X.

Also Cape Fear & maybe Pulse X.

Weird how some stuff suddenly becomes scarce. I'm kicking myself for not picking up Cape Fear - the repress of it was in stock everywhere for ages until that Four Tet Fabriclive CD came out and then all the remaining copies got snapped up fast.

Pulse X you could quite easily get for £5-8 a few years ago, I guess that tune has had a resurgence in popularity somewhat. Luckily I grabbed this many new years ago so got it retail price.

As I mentioned earlier in the thread, this release has Cape Fear on it, with three other sick tunes, my copy sounds absolutely fine. 1 for sale for 13 quid at the mo.

Yeah I've seen this before on Discogs (although not actually for sale), seeing as I already have Dub Monsters - Waiting and don't like the other tunes so much I think I will pass on this one in the hopes of a cheaper copy of Cape Fear eventually surfacing, cheers for the tip though and I hope someone else in need of Cape Fear gets to enjoy this!

[garethom]

No worries man, I was so happy when I found out about that, sure my copy was about 8 quid or something. Like you said, hope somebody takes the tip, worth it for Cape Fear alone, but the other tunes are also sick.

Yeah, I know, but I want authenticity!!! Tbh I heard both Pulse X & Cape Fear for the first time on that Four Tet Fabric mix. Killer mix! One of my favourites of recent years.

Yeah, that's fair enough, £55 though, raa! I wanted that Four Tet fabriclive mix for so long, kept putting it off, then grabbed it for like, 70p off chemical the other day. Coincidentally, just been listening to it for the first time in the car.

Fela Kuti - Expensive Shit/Water No Get Enemy (I swear i read a music blog post online a few months ago that suggested that Fela's back catalogue was going to get repressed soon, anyone else know anything about it?)

This is probably my Holy Grail record.
Doubt it will get a repress anytime soon though, as it's has been repressed in 2011 and rereleased as CD backed with He Miss Road. But yeah, a serious dream for me would be digging up the original release of this.

Man... that mix!!! When he goes from Street Halo to Cape Fear.... So simple yet so so dope!!! Then Higher Power comes in... Fuckin... so good!

[garethom]

Finished listening to it earlier, already in my favourites

Persian - Feel Da Vibe

[lewisbaral]

The Four Tet remix of First Born as well! That's a tune that needs a release asap!!
