    ARE THESE BOOTLEGS?

    I found these this weekend and was wondering if these are the original pressings or boots?

    The Apache Band "Apache"/"Bongo Rock" (Guava Records) Made in Jamacia (This is most likely a boot or repress)

    Inner Life "I'm Caught Up" (TCT Records Inc.) TCT Records, Inc. 7100 Boulevard East Guttenberg, NJ 07093

    "Love is the Message"/"Hollywood Party" - Special Disco Mix (One Way Records)
    The "Love is the Message" is a remix that uses the more dubby part of the original with the electric piano(very good version).

    An extended 'Apache' came out on a few Jamaican labels - and they're all bootlegs.

    The 'Love Is The Message' is just Brooklyn Express/Hi-Voltage.
    What would you do without your muesli...where would you be without a bowl?

    Hi-Voltage / Brooklyn Express were the in-housers at One Way Records. Their brief career consisted mainly of covering popular disco tracks.

    Inner Life was indeed licensed to Prelude.

    I really like thier cover of the "Love is the Message". It's very housey.

    If you like "LITM" by Hi Voltage, they had another head turner on One Way. It's called "Somewhere Beyond" and was mixed by Tee Scott. The song is actually the group's medley of "Beyond the Clouds" by Quartz and "Relight My Fire" by Dan Hartman. I was not a big fan of either at the time of their release but I have to admit this medley has an excellent piano breakdown/segue way from "BTC" to RMF".
