Dream Blood and Fire release

[cole]

I think the Blood and Fire label has done a great job in re-issuing roots reggae. There are two artist who I would love to see Blood and Fire releases from: Joe Higgs and Leo Graham. Both are great artist who have many many singles that have never appeared on LP.

Does anyone else have any thoughts on who Blood and Fire should re-issue?

Aren't they tit's up?

the full story behind how B&F are doing is pretty hard to find out, at one point they def were and then there were talks of money coming from somewhere.. Then a sort out of stock and stuff.
I heard at one point they were just selling their stock they had left and not producing more but times could of changed since then

A Big Joe-set would have been great! Fantastic deejay that I think also would be entirely in the line with what B&F have done previously.

Would also have loved to see a set collecting 7" and 12" by Leroy Smart.

There is some hope, guys.
Steve Barrow is running the Equalizer label (check the wicked General Echo re-release - http://www.roots-archives.com/label/1028 ). Maybe Equalizer will continue 'the B&F releases'.

the blood and fire stuff is being talked about on this new thread on b&f so hopefully they will give you the info on the labels future: http://www.bloodandfire.co.uk/db/viewtopic.php?t=26613
