Oh what a label! Classic Rides Again, Rumours, Ruff We Ruff, Pirates On The Shore, Once Bitten. All up there with the top tunes of the decade. Classic Sounds must be one of the most unique Reggae labels on the planet with that label design and the productions, just incredible! I only have Once Bitten though, others are way too expensive and rare but will get them one day! CLASSIC!!!
@wikidub All copies of this tune sound like this unfortunately. There is an Alton Ellis 12" on the same label up on ebay right now with the same problem.
Oh yea..is your pressing of this 12" not the greatest sound quality. I'm assuming all copies are that way? I have an EX copy and it sounds kind of dull.
@higherregion What you hear is what you get man. All 3 copies that I have heard have all sounded like this and this one was sealed. Could be an integral part of the sound???
Check out my digi thrown together mini mixes I have up. A lot of stuff that you will like. Part 3 will come out in the summer. It will feature some huge unknown Jamaican 7" digi surprises, a couple that I've been holding back for a decade or so :)
@higherregion Ruff We Ruff is a hard piece of digi! Can't find it for love nor money though. This is very very different to the Horace Martin, a lot more unique in my opinion.
And yes, I remember you saying it sounded like something from Super Mario, haha. Nintendo + Digi = A Good Time in my book :D
@buckbumble Ruff We Ruff took me 8 years to find! And a couple weeks later I found a 2nd copy online for a few dollars which I traded to a friend. There's another wicked classic sounds.. Little John - Reality which is on YT also, but its not great as Rumours, Ruff & Pirates.
please please if anyone has a spare pm me , such a tuuune
