Carnastoan

[rasralo]

I saw threads about UK Roots - did they release more than the "Mr. Workhard" (a real killer!) 12"?
Thanks!

Not from what I know. But I do have a recording of one of their sessions at John Peel. A really nice session too. They did two sessions and the songs on those two sessions were:

Progressive News
Natural Man
Give A Damn
Pirate
Satan
Trouble On My Mind
I Don't Want To Lose You
Sufferer

However I don't think they have been properly released.

hello rasralo i ve ever looked after this band , never heard anything else than their double A-side ...i should pay to hear this John Peel session !

perhaps they made other titles with other name carna-stoan or cornerstone or carnastone... sure they made something else

[kalcidis]

You don't need to pay... just do a search for it.

Cornerstone (Carnastoan) were still active in the early 90s. I saw them performing. By them most members were London-based (originally from Birmingham). Led by drummer Conrad Kelly (great drummer) who went on to join Steel Pulse in the 90s.

[collieman]

like Carna stoan there was another band who made a double a side prod by Dennis Bovell
X-ODUS - english black boys12" anyone know them & if they do anything else ??

it is a nice 12"....

[rasralo]

First:
SCEPTRE - I have got the LP in my collection, nice one. Bad pressing - very thin vinyl which jumps sometimes .....
X-O-DUS is a Killer 12" - absolutely one of the best Dennis Bovell productions ever.
I have never heard anything else from them.

i LOVE bovell's prod....

i love his style we can recognize it easyly...
