Could anyone help me with a complete list of a batch of look-a-like reissues that have been released a while ago?
Labels on the reissues include eg. r&b, island etc.
I have vernon allan - far i come/ babylon from this series and I know there's also tommy mc cook - 1,2,3, kick.
Does anyone know how many of these were released?
Thanks,
Zip

Thank you nickbug.
I think the first couple that you have listed are the ones I'm looking for, the other ones are Japanese bootlegs, as far as I know. Those I have vary in terms of sound quality. Are the other ones from Japan as well, since they have far better sound quality?
