A Griffith & Gladiators unknown tunes, pls help!

Post by Litelet »

Ites bredrins,

Gotta question bout the gladiators, at Studio One first:
they releasead "Happy Man" as 12" only. So is the 7" one called "Rightous man" the short cut of it?

Then, has anyone a tune of them called:
* Peace (Studio one 7")

is it "peace truce"?

Thanks a lot

The Studio One 7" "Peace" is actually the same song known also as "Peace Truce".

Hi, i can answer you that "happy man" (on "bongo red" compil) and "righteous man" (on "symbol of reality" album) are not the same songs.
I dont know for 12" and 7" versions but i guess its same...
For "peace"/"peace truce" i dont know these songs...

"Happy Man" is sometimes also titled "Portray of a Believer".

There's a Studio 1 12" single and a 7" extended single called "Righteous Man". Albert Griffiths sings lead ("Talk it here and I will talk it there ..."). It's the same tune that's on the Symbol Of Reality album.
Then there's another (probably older) Studio 1 7" single called "Righteous Man", but it is a whole different tune with Clinton Fearon on lead vocals.
At last there's the Studio 1 12" and 7" single: "Happy Man", where Albert Griffiths sings " ...I always wanna be in the shoes of a righteous man". Confusing, isn't it?
