PPC Tribute to the 1993 UK Reissue of the 1973 Classic

 BANDS ON THE RERUN - A TRIBUTE TO... (2020)

Released in 1973, the UK edition of BOTR had nine tracks, the US release included "Helen Wheels" on side 2. It's only in 1993 that the CD UK reissue added both sides of the single. This is how you'll listen to 11 bands/artists covering the original album plus the single as bonus tracks.
 
An exclusive PPC compilation available in lossy and lossless formats. The front artwork uses four alternate pictures of the photo session. The official choice has been used for the PPC inlay.

Special note: As the "1985" cover didn't include the BOTR outro, I've added the BOTR snippet made by Zeus Henderson at the end of  his own cover of "Say Say Say" (this one was featured on Tributes or Not Tributes Vol. 15)

D.E as Producer & Backing Band

 JILL READ - MAYBE / WANG DANG DOODLE (1977)

Jill Read (real name Gillian Reed) was featured with this cover of The Chantels' hit on the first Stiff compilation "A Bunch Of Stiff Records". According to the Stiff inner sleeve, the track was recorded in 1969 with Dave Edmunds. Later in 1972, Dave Edmunds recorded his own version of the song released as the B side of "Baby I Love You",  both were included in 1975 on "Subtle As A Flying Mallet".

The Jill Read single was released on Stiff Records with "Wang Dang Doodle", on its B side, it was a cover of the Willie Dixon classic. The single was released in the Netherlands only and it's the only opportunity to listen to this cover as it has never been available on any other record. For information  the french edition of the single had replaced "Wang Dang Doodle" with the Takeaways song "Food" also on "A Bunch Of Stiff Records"
 
"Wang Dang Doodle" was probably recorded around 1969 with Dave Edmunds. Love Sculpture had released their own version in 1968 on "Blues Helping".
