Three bucks is currently about a penny! LOL
No, seriously, it's about 2 bucks to a pound.
We Brit vinyl collectors love it, as it makes buying records outta the US so cheap.
But it also makes selling records to the US almost impossible!

And for those of us that, like me, love a bit of Sugar in our reggae music...
What better combination that Sugar Minott and Gregory Isaacs?

A double dose indeed!

"You want some SUGAR, come get some..." SMILES...
Love Sugar Minot, bwoi dem have nuff of Sugar @ DYNAMIC SOUNDS but mi bag was full-up!
Went on a Mighty Diamonds/Sugar Minot tour in the USA in 2003. Fab-5 was back-up...it was a memory I will never forget....all of us friends packed inna van yelling out "One stop driva"...we were so tired, we started gettin goofy....
It was a MOTHERS DAY tour in 2003, so 4 years ago TODAY. It all goes by in a blink.
I read something that stated: "It's not how many breaths you take, but the moments that take your breath away"....love that, so true~

I still have that double album "Lover's Rock" ("Lonely Lover"/"More Gregory"). "More Gregory" is definitely the better of the two albums albums in my eyes. Before I bought "Lover's Rock" I did have "More Gregory", but needless to say foolishly sold it.
I did have the good fortune to see Gregory a couple of times back in the day. The last of which was when he was backed by the Roots Radics at the Top Rank, Brighton in 1980. Ah, memories!
