I just put this in song word assn thing.. Belongs here really👍

 

I was living in Hulme when this came out and used to walk over to moss side to see various mates who lived there.. about 5 mins walk! 

Often used to hear this blaring out of windows on the Hulme crescents

Good tune, strangely I don’t think I’ve heard that before, apparently dem a sus was about the stop and search laws at the time

Surprised you've not come across it, but maybe you kind of had to be there, don't know how widely distributed it was...

Yep the "Sus" laws, look it up, it was basically they could pull you if they "suspected" you for pretty much anything, so a kind of blank cheque really

I skipped through the tracks and I’m afraid it’s not a bit of me, but I can see how a ramone/ reggae fan might like it 🙂, didn’t the clash have a reggae album

This one is a little different but I like the way the Bassline goes 

and Street Lover by the Morwells, not exactly sure if it’s Flabba playing here but he was in the band around this time , sounds like him

If you’re stuck for something to listen to I can recommend the album Jerusalem by Alpha Blondy, it’s a mixture of different song styles and Aston Barrett on bass, i like this one
