ZAp Pow are a UK band??

[capp]

As far as I know, Zap Pow are a Jamaican band with the great Beres Hammond.

[ice]

Zap Pow are indeed Jamaican session musicians, a band much like the Revolutionaries, the Upsetters or the Roots Radics, with changing personell

their albums contain both instrumentals and vocals, the latter very often by Beresford Hammond

I was surprised lol
Great subtile band, "now", "reggae rules" , "revolutionnary Zap Pow", great albums!

[Ites]

Zap Pow was as Jamaican as Jamaican could be, they didn't change line up that much, only Beres Hammond was in and out I believe. Dwight Pinckney later started the Roots Radics as most of you knows.

Mighty Invaders was I believe out of the Washington area, so definitely not a 'UK' band. They did like 1 album

Hot Rocks I know very little about, I think they were a vocal group, not actually a band but I could be wrong there

I don't know how 'new' you are to the music bobby but this was a long time ago now that those type of bands existed, most of them broke up more than 20 years ago and the records become out of print in most cases, a so it go y'no see it?

Most likely you'll find them on eBay if anywhere, there's no website I believe who stocks these albums but give Ernie B's a try but I don't think you'll find them there either
