Happy Sunday

These covers are annoyingly important!

Another Barry Briggs cover...



Who doesn't love the little studio one two step beat?

 

[Sirena]

Very early (1978?) UK Lovers from three South London schoolgirls. 15.16.17 were never really brilliant but they were the ones that really connected with second generation black schoolkids...

Great tune, i used to go to a Soul Disco and they would have an half hour reggae slot, same tunes every week...Sideshow, Police and Thieves, After Tonight, Hurt So Good and this one by 15, 16, 17...I'm hurt. The extended version has an excellent two stepping dub. It may have been posted before but here we go anyway
sorry, dunno what happened there

 

[BCBlues]

[Sirena]

Brilliant abstract, random dub....

Exactly, not a big tune on the revival circuit but I have a couple of friends who always ask me to play it when they come round because it's their childhood
