Mine is the orange label press from Costa Rica and I'm pretty sure it's the first press (loyola/ Yamato pressed everything there for a while there)
Super-raers?
- Thread starter DjArcadian
- Start date
well, not really shure about this, a lot of early albums state "hecho en panama" from lables like Tamayo, Sally Ruth,Loyola & Taboga/Discos Isthmenos. I assume some were pressed in both countrys. would be interessting to know whats in your runout? im @ work now, but as far as i remember it was nr.424 on the label and considering the rather high cat. number there has been many before. I??m pretty sure i have lower cat. number loyola orange label pressings stating made in panama at home.
Despite this, i assume this one was pressed in thousands but got "raer" over the times as it hardly shows up.

Yeah, you are right. I just got home and double checked my copy. 424A and it is in fact a Panama press (it says "Hecho En Panama" real small just underneath the scorpion shield logo). Checking popsike, it is identical the one auctioned off.
So, is your copy on this Loyola label variation?
The above noted, I remember from one of my conversations with Beto that indeed most Loyola stuff was pressed in Costa Rica for a certain time period, as pressing costs were lower or something to that effect.

nope, its more like this:
but yellow label and as far as i remember the bands name is printed in some smaller bold letters. also i think its not stated where it was manufactured. anyway, its a great single, which kills me everytime i drop the needle on it and i will do so tomorrow when i get up and let you know what else hints i can find out.
^almost, but here we go with a third variation. this one was bought in panama for pennys but as you see there??s a stamp on it which i suppose mentions an US address. Compared to other loyola releases you??re right about the grooves. It sounds thicker and louder aswell. Runout mentions CH-424-A / CH-424-B and also theres no indication where it was manufactured.
do you guys think this one was pressed in the US? i dont think so as i never heard of any other Exciters stuff pressed there but sure could be possible as for examples records of bush or manito johnson was also released in the US.

It's real...though the instrumental version of "Why Can't..." is false.
I actually held a copy of this in my hands just yesterday, unfortunately it wasn't for sale though... However, it most certainly contains a version of "Why Can't People Be Colors Too" on it that's not just a straight-up instrumental but rather an alternate version... The cover has Machine spelled out with nuts and bolts and the group posing in a junkyard on top of heaps of scrap metal...

Alright, I'd really like to know if anyone else has a copy of this:
Personally, I only know of one additional copy. INSANE Panamanian cover of Cymande's "Message".

Good tune. I'm still more partial to the Hielo Ardiente version but I ain't mad at the Festivals!
I'm assuming Beto at least has a copy?

damn, dont hype that El Mensaje, it??s one of my top latin wants! For shure, that one is mas o menos impossible to find but luckily we??re blessed with it on the great 1st. P. Comp. IMHO the Hielo Ardiente version aint shit against the Festivals one, but still its a very good Interpretation of the classic, no doubt!. Staying with the Festivals, here??s another great one that dont get much talk:
