eurythmics - sweet dreams nightmare remix
digital domain - rabbit city 03
this progressive house compilation
and a load of late 80s house/new beat type stuff

 

[Fozzie Bear]

Junior Chin - Posse Move/ in the Dancehall Tonight
Junior Chin - Run Come

Those are both quite sought after Jah Tubbys releases. I've only got the first one, but one side of it is wicked.

 

[killer b]

they're both very of their time tbh. ok, but they don't get the rewinds...

 

[cozmikbrew]

The Jam ''setting Sons''(with raised embossed cover)mint 50p,Soundtrack to A Clockwork Orange again mint 50p,an Mo'Wax label ''Excursion'' Techno remix ep(Mark Broom,Stasis,Andrea Parker) 25p,got loadsa singles but cant think what they are at mo

I am very much "of my time", so obviously you should send me "Run Come" to look after and flog the other one on ebay for $$$$$$$$.

 

[killer b]

i find with reggae my tastes change over time, so i expect i'll keep hold of it for now. they only seem to go for 20-30 a pop anyway (run come anyway - no listing on popsike for posse move, which may mean it's mega expensive i guess)

 

[ringo]

Junior Chin - Posse Move/ in the Dancehall Tonight
Junior Chin - Run Come
Twinkle Brothers - Underground

80's digital is the rising market in reggae collecting at the moment, though tbh a lot of it sounds as crap to me now as it did then. I find those Tubbys twelves on Y & D especially hit and miss, but I know some rate them highly . Run Come goes for a score though, nice find.

That Twinkles 12" is alright, not quite the furious stepper of some other similar dated releases though.

 

[rutabowa]

i would sell Rastafari Is the way on Jah Tubby's 7" for £100! it might even get it.

 

[ringo]

You might too, glad I bought it when it came out 'cos I wouldn't pay that for it now.

 

[rutabowa]

i like it just enough to make me not quite sell it though...

it's the album rather than the 12. Nice chilled roots. Shaka plays bass on it.

actually, the dub of 'run come' is wicked. the vocal isn't too bad too.

b-side, less interesting.

 

[killer b]

Eddy grant - do you feel my love 12

First two are old friends, every reggae fan should own them. That Trojan comp is quite hard to find, worth it for the immortal Cuss Cuss, and a couple of nice Belltones tracks. You probably should have left the Eddy Grant there

 

[killer b]

Eddy grant is ace, fool. There's a weird disco instrumental on the flip too, which is mainly what I got it for.
the Trojan comp is great, if a bit beat up. I'll pick up any Trojan Lps from that era when I find 'em - guranteed to be a few winners...

You've been listening to too much cod reggae!!

I was driving down to Devon once, and forced to listen to Radio 2 I think it was - they had a half hour feature on Eddy Grant. Dont remember much about it, other than that he is a very very rich man. There was something about a disco track (maybe the one you mention) being the first ever something or other, and some kind of suing /sample case...can anyone remember what im going on about?

 

[ska invita]

Ive got this mixed up - nothing to do with that radio show - it was to do with Grants Time Warp allegedly being ripped off by the Gorrilaz
