060b Max Romeo - / Lee Perry "Revelation" (UPSETTER)

Last time of checking, was wrong. The track that is/was there was "War in a babylon dub" from the Island single.

Unless that's changed.

Michael--thanks!

RE: the Colyer single--i think it was established as the "If I Cease to Love"/"Bucket Got a Hole in It"/"Wild Cat Blues" one..

Colyer:
"If I Ever Cease/Bucket":

bought Al Casey cd on thursday, he of 'Surfin Hootenanny' fame (ie the first thing you hear if you listen to the box in order). turns out that Lee Hazelwood wrote and produced it (and a bunch of his other stuff). nice lp of happy surfing songs but not something you can listen to from start to finish whilst remaining sane. the record label owner also designed a car (http://koti.mbnet.fi/wdd/hankdavisbio5.htm) (why does this remind me of Homer Simpson?)

Hi,

Sorry I have been out of the loop for a while. I am now half way through collecting the vinyl versions of these songs. Ken Colyer's EP is on Tempo records EXA 26. It includes "Isle of Capri/St Phillip St Breakdown/Shine & Gentofte Blues. I picked up the copy from New Zealand. I have the following B Sides. Roshell Anderson & Yami Bolo.
I will try to post up soon. Bob Robinson

Bob Robinson (rob1nson), Tuesday, 21 February 2006 23:03 (twenty years ago)

that's the wrong ken colyer ep i'm afraid bob. the other one (same cover, different colour) was shown and played in the documentary.

052a Ken Colyer's Jazzmen - If I Cease to Love / Bucket Got A Hole In It
052b Ken Colyer's Jazzmen - Wildcat Blues / Wabash Blues

both of which we have.

circumstantial evidence: http://www.avistic.demon.co.uk/1995/07.txt

koogs (koogs), Wednesday, 22 February 2006 12:05 (twenty years ago)

Hi Koogs,

The December issue of Record Collector in the UK definitely shows a record matrix number of Tempo EXA 26, which is the St Phillip St Breakdown EP.. Is there any further evidence on this.

Bob Robinson (rob1nson), Saturday, 25 February 2006 15:01 (twenty years ago)

In the documentary they show the If I Cease to Love version, and play a track from it. At one point they show the cover briefly as someone is flipping through the box.

patita (patita), Saturday, 25 February 2006 15:45 (twenty years ago)

an un-firewalled seeder would be most appreciated, stuck at 37%...

sleeve, away, Saturday, 25 February 2006 20:14 (twenty years ago)

> At one point they show the cover briefly

which isn't much help as both covers are *very* similar 8) but yes, If I Cease is shown and played in the documentary (over John's school photo where he's wearing a different style blazer to everyone else, near the start of part two iirc). can't explain the Record Collector catalogue number except that it's easy to mix them up.

buy them both 8)

koogs (koogs), Sunday, 26 February 2006 17:50 (twenty years ago)

Basically, the record collector article was pretty much doing what we have been, i.e. checking the internet, checking the documentary and using intuition.

So, they got the Ken Colyer e.p. wrong, but then I think they are probably right about the Electro Hippies single:

The one we have is the 12" Strange Fruit session, whereas they have it as the limited edition "Mega armageddon death/You suffer" split with Napalm Death that Strange Fruit did. Not to be confused by the similar one Earache records did.

I have dial up at home, but a faster connection at work, but no torrent. If anyone can stick some in the odd zip file, would be most greatful. I do have a mate who can do torrent stuff, but would need some specific info to be successful, as I'm pretty clueless with that end of things.

Thank you very much.

Wobs (Wobs), Tuesday, 7 March 2006 11:01 (twenty years ago)

I'll see what I can do Wobs, but I've just suffered a hard drive failure so it may take a bit.

patita (patita), Tuesday, 7 March 2006 22:04 (twenty years ago)

Your effort is much appreciated, thank you.

Wobs (Wobs), Wednesday, 8 March 2006 10:05 (twenty years ago)

wobs, some of your list are tracks that no one's got yet. afaik the following is what is being collected still:

Arthur K Adams - Wildwood flower/It's a wild wild wild wildwood flower

Here are a few that you were after. (PS It's the Olympics, not Jody Reynolds, for 'Western movies'. I think it was a dual artist single.)

whatever (boglogger), Wednesday, 8 March 2006 13:21 (twenty years ago)

My apologies. I thought I had elminated those that everyone didn't have. Will try harder in future.

I tried the link Whatever, but unfortunately it gets as far as about 20Mb, and finishes. There's about 35Mb in total.

Wobs (Wobs), Wednesday, 8 March 2006 15:07 (twenty years ago)

the link just worked fine for me

whatever (boglogger), Wednesday, 8 March 2006 18:09 (twenty years ago)

It worked! I had tried repeatedly without success, until I installed the YSIGet thing, and huzzah!

Wonder why its worked on previous large files without installing that, and not this one?

Wobs (Wobs), Friday, 10 March 2006 13:58 (twenty years ago)

good, now you don't have to wait for my machine to come back from the shop!

patita (patita), Friday, 10 March 2006 16:37 (twenty years ago)

Can anyone repost Eddie & Ernie "I believe she will"? Putting together a CD for a friend and realized I am missing that one.

Thanks a alot Patita.

Matthew Walker (thatkid225), Wednesday, 15 March 2006 16:56 (twenty years ago)

can we have that hxxp again, whatever? it must have a expired a sec ago.

alex in mainhattan (alex63), Wednesday, 15 March 2006 21:57 (twenty years ago)

alex, i didn't keep the file. was there a particular track you were after?

whatever (boglogger), Thursday, 16 March 2006 10:51 (twenty years ago)

I just looked at your list of missing tracks. It is basically the same as mine. So I imagine there was nothing new in your file. Right?

alex in mainhattan (alex63), Thursday, 16 March 2006 11:57 (twenty years ago)

yup, right.

whatever (boglogger), Thursday, 16 March 2006 14:28 (twenty years ago)

we're still waiting on the folks who have acquired the vinyl to rip and share, nudge nudge?

patita (patita), Thursday, 16 March 2006 16:29 (twenty years ago)

two weeks pass...
...wink, wink.

Saying no more?

dean coster (charlieblimey), Monday, 3 April 2006 15:29 (twenty years ago)

apparently not!

patita (patita), Monday, 3 April 2006 18:43 (twenty years ago)

how oddly prescient.

for those who haven't seen it, you'll want to read the first post in this thread:
Attention: The YSI Crew

In short: No more YSI links, folks.

patita (patita), Thursday, 6 April 2006 13:51 (twenty years ago)

…and we was so close – it's a cryin' shame…

no chance of taking it someplace else i suppose?

well done everyone for getting this far

keefus (keefus), Thursday, 6 April 2006 13:56 (twenty years ago)

Nothing more to see, nothing more to hear.

John Peel has left the ILM thread.

So, Patita, is it time to burn those CDs without the last few tracks?

flannelgraph (Jon McNeill), Thursday, 6 April 2006 14:13 (twenty years ago)

That's what I was wondering. I'll send an email to the people who have indicated that they have physical copies of some of the remaining stuff and see what happens.

In case I missed anyone on an email (2 computer crashes, so I never know anymore): I intended to burn the whole thing to CD and put it in a nice little box for all the folks who contributed. Send me an email if you were the source of some material for the box, and I'll get things underway.

patita (patita), Thursday, 6 April 2006 14:41 (twenty years ago)

Hello.
I know there is no YSI but can someone please reseed the big torrent for a bit. I am stuck on 88.9% and have been for eons, waiting for a good samaritan!

Debord (Debord), Friday, 7 April 2006 08:09 (twenty years ago)

> So, Patita, is it time to burn those CDs without the last few tracks?

you can burn cds using multisession support which means you can add tracks later. this only(?) works with cds burnt as data (ie mp3s) and not (i don't think) burnt as audio (but then, by my calculations you'd need about 10 cds for the audio version and 2 for the mp3s)

koogs (koogs), Friday, 7 April 2006 08:43 (twenty years ago)

Je propose next project: a recreation of the John Peel grime evening, as discussed in Margarve of the Marshes.

PJ Miller (PJ Miller 68), Friday, 7 April 2006 09:32 (twenty years ago)

I may be able to reseed the torrent, Debord... I lost a hard drive, so I'm not sure, but I'll get it going this evening if I can.

Dave AKA Dave (dave225.3), Friday, 7 April 2006 10:45 (twenty years ago)

Marvellous - I'm already excited.
That looks a bit sarcastic doesn't it.
It's not meant that way.

Debord (Debord), Friday, 7 April 2006 11:58 (twenty years ago)

Hmm, I've lost most of them too when my Mac failed, too. Why is that happening? A curse of YSI?

But I never paid attention to how I'm supposed to get that link on the spreadsheet page to work with Azareus... could someone quickly explain for me? Thanx.

Jon McNeill (Jon McNeill), Friday, 7 April 2006 14:37 (twenty years ago)

I have the files but lost the torrent file - and the tracker seems to be no longer available...

I have been trying to create a new torrent, but it keeps failing.

stay tuned.

Dave AKA Dave (dave225.3), Friday, 7 April 2006 21:17 (twenty years ago)

Feel free to post any links to me and I'll paste them into my blog in case posting here becomes a problem. There are links to lots of other Peel sites too and I for one am not calling it a day on this project. All things come to those who wait!

I've uploaded a couple of Peel programmes from 2003 too with more to come, so pop over and say hi!

So 47 has been found? I don't have any of that one. (Jerry Byro)

mark grout (mark grout), Tuesday, 13 June 2006 15:15 (nineteen years ago)

047 seems to be got, yes.

have just ordered the stanley winston single (095) (was listed under its b-side) and am bidding on roshell anderson on ebay (083). you wait ages for one and then 3 come at once...

annoyingly, a copy of the Yami Bolo single went on ebay about a week ago (£10.50). maybe someone should email the winner with a cheeky request...

koogy wonderland (koogs), Wednesday, 14 June 2006 08:26 (nineteen years ago)
