I remember this one from Reggae sunsplash back in the 80s , the same day Black Uhuru appeared unannounced with about 30 bodyguards

I don’t think I’ve come across them, nice track at 12.30

Not strictly Reggae.. but have just found my Dub Side of the Moon CD... Mrs was tidying up the TV cabinet of a lot of the kids old DVDs...

Will have to get my eldest (16) to give it an air, after they 'discovered' Dark Side a year or so ago...

All good thanks mate..

Ive enjoyed catching up on some of the great tunes on here👍

[Reggaebass]

I haven’t posted any Raging fyah for a while, they are one of my favourite bands, great tune here

I'm due some new strings, currently have 5 string steel roundwounds 40-128 and thinking of getting Nickel and heavier gauge (45-130), mostly as D and G sound a bit thin. Or possibly I'd go for roundwound but I occasionally play funk/slap so ideally want something that can still do that (but most of the time it's for Reggae). Any particular recommendations?

I can’t help with roundwound strings as all my basses apart from 1 precision have flats, or tapes,  I think @jazzyvee uses rounds, maybe he could advise 🙂
