Fabian Cooke and Itopia Band - That's Not All - Best 12inch Wackies ever?

[leggo rocker]

I have a track from this 12inch on a real old cassette tape in the car. 'Never could love this way' - a bouncy riddim itself and good enough to go searching the original pressing of this track, which is actually a B side.

I found it on ebay and when I got it I found that the A side is totally wicked.

'Thats not all' sung by Fabian Cooke.

I just played the track, and it's dub version, over and over and over, all last night!

This chune is so so good.

It typifies the very best of Wackies output - superb vocals over the best of Wackies backing tracks in his own unique style. barnes adds a special touch to the mixes, a spacey yet heavy dub mix that previously only Lee Perry seemed able to get away with.

I can't praise this tune enough! Wackies fans should move mountains to hear this track.

i agree, this tune is a real KILLER. the itopia band performs that song live on the wackies documentary dvd. NOT TO BE MISSED.
