So here I am on a Sunday morning on my laptop trying to be productive with some things I need to get done, and this has been keeping me company for the past hour and a half or so....just clicking repeat everytime it finishes

I do like a bit of Mikey Dread 👍, I’m going through a few channel 1 tracks , great Bassline on this by the revolutionaries 

and this by the soulsville all stars who I know little about, this is the B side of Bondage, any info on them greatly appreciated

Keep your eye out for any pink rim island pressings, they are highly collectible , this one of Kaya  is from Nigeria, it’s not mine btw 😁

AKA Junior Delgardo ?

These Folks were from Derby. Got to play on the same roster as them at gigs in the Derby/Burton area in the 80's. Great band probably not that well known.

Yeah, confused me a bit as I have a more recent version labelled as Junior Delgardo on vinyl, think it's exactly the same though.

Blimey I think the last Reggae tune I played was One In Ten back in 81.....not exactly roots reggae but fun times if I recall.

Great track, nice Bassline by Earl Falconer, it was off their second album , Present Arms I think, the first was Signing Off which I bought when it came out, and I’ve still got it 🙂

You are going to thank me for this one 😁, I’m gonna take you back to the sound system days, heavy Bassline
