Seeing the Alton Ellis Studio One Showcase album coming up on the front page reminds me, the entry currently says Tumbling Tears is only on the reissues, this isn't totally right, the track is on the original copies too but in true Coxsone style not listed on either the sleeve or the label.

Also on an earlier post "Worries in the Dance" - original Channel 1 version/"War is in the Dance" - later Greensleeves version (2 different recordings)... depends which one it is.

Just noticed that this label probably has an error on it;
http://www.roots-archives.com/label/840

The Sister Carol LP is not released on SG I'm quite certain, but rather on Serious Gold;

An addition.

Besides the E-E Saw Dub, which was released with blank sleeve and mislabeled on EE-saw label, also the vocal Tenement Yard was released that way with Matrix EW -LP 300 on EE-Saw Label and is therefore the first (pre)release of this Jacob Miller classic.

Respect for your work.

A correction
The coxsone press of Showcase vol 1 has got the matrix
# SOL 128. Probably the sleeve with greene letters.

Mango, the label for "Juicy Mangoes" is not Island, it's a different label (from Birmingham).
