I've never heard of one, but if it's out there, I would also love a copy!

Yes, there is an album on Musical Ambassador which is called *Edi Fitzroy Meets Roots Radics at Channel One*. Only seen it once. Can't be anything else than stellar.

I think this might be it...

Yes, that's the one. Been trying to find it for years. Only seen it once and then it went for incredible £10 on eBay! Deal of the century.

Out Of Curiosity,did Roots Radics record anywhere else but Channel One?

If so which albums?

Interesting question. I can't recall any particular songs or albums at the moment but I'm certain they did. At least later in their career.

One of my top ten Radics LPs was recorded at Tuff Gong (when it was still at 56 Hope Rd):

Brent Dowe - Look What Love Can Do

They recorded at Aquarius studio as well, im fairly certain they recorded at Dynamics as well, just gotta find the record where I remember seeing that.

Night Nurse was at Tuff Gong and Compass Point.

Thanks Bredrens,i wanted to compare how much of the magic got lost when the combination of Channel One,King Tubbys was taken out of the equation so i just had a good listen to Night Nurse.

The magic is definately in the musicians.
