Barrington Spence - Children Don't You Cry
7" High School International

What!!?? This ya thread is far down the chart!

Time for di comeback!!

Im listening to, at di moment:

Jah Thomas - Tribute to reggaeking Bob N Marley.

Listening to some sevens that came in the mail today:

Prince Pampado - Careless Company
The Itals - Don't Wake The Lion
Jah Blue & The Originals - Revolution
Big Youth - Notty No Jester
Barrington Spence - Go Deh Natty

I'm chilling to the sounds of my dub collection:

Dutchman Dub - Revolutionaries - Burning Sounds

and

Three Dreads From Zion - GGs AllStars - GG Records (great sounds but this one could qualify for the most appalling vinyl pressing in my collection!)

Gregory Isaacs - time is hard with uroy 12"

I'm still dipping into my dub collection and fished this out:

Rocking Vibration - Linval Thompson - Burning Sounds

http://www.roots-archives.com/release/577

Now what is that doing in my dub basket? It's a vocal LP!

Perhaps it's not Linval Thompson at his absolute best, but it is a worthy collection of his material all the same.

Poison Flour-Dr Alimantado, its had me singing the tune all day for the last 2 weeks....AWESOME!!!

Playing Captain Sinbad's "The Seven Voyages" cd reissue, nice nice nice!

If you must know what's on my turntable it's ... "Make Faith" by Knowledge and Tappa Zukie on a Stars 12" - nice bassline.

Back to the dubbing with:

Liberated Dub - The Force of Music - Ballistic

Another bit of rub a dub from Roy Cousins. Maybe this isn't the best dub LP in the world but it's still one well worth seeking out and listening too - especially if you're a fan of this style of very laid back smooth roots Channel One / Hoo-Kim dubbing.

There's a great stanza written on the back of the LP that needs to be quoted:

"Life hard! And the music harder!"
