Producers could therefore release twice as many records for more or less the same initial outlay.
There was also an economic aspect to consider – it being much cheaper to use the same song on both sides of a single rather pay studio time for an artist to record another song. The first singles to be released to the public in this format usually featured a straight instrumental version on the B-side, but gradually the creative skills of the recording engineers began to take over and snatches of the original vocal would be dropped tantalisingly in and out of the mix, often enhanced by a judicious use of echo and other sonic effects. This originally came about as a response to demand from the sound system operators, who liked to be able to switch between the vocal and instrumental mixes of a popular tune in order to excite the crowd in a dance.

The A-side would feature the full vocal mix, while the B-side would carry a stripped down instrumental re-mix, known as the ‘version’. It was common practice in Jamaica from the late 1960s onwards for producers to use the same song on both sides of a 7” single. I've got several mix-tapes compiled by collectors that follow the same format, but this the first time that a whole album full of Studio One B-side versions has received an official release. Heartbeat's Chris Wilson has put together a superb collection of B-side versions from some of those classic 1970s 7" singles. Now, this is such a good idea I'm surprised it hasn't been done before.
