Salmonella Dub and The Black Seeds are New Zealand bands. I have all of their material and believe me, its worth it. I am a dyed in the wool rocker but reggae has always held a special place in my heart.

In 1983 I was a student living in a commune with 4 other students.

He was a youngish chap with a wife and young kids, and of conservative demeanour. We were expecting a complaint about the loud music, but instead he accepted a hit or two and produced a cassette tape which included, among other things, this:
