Is anyone into the Jolly Brothers? I have just searched the Forum and there is only one post relating to them.

I first got into them when I bought 'Ballistic Sureshots' -http://www.roots-archives.com/release/2388 - when it came out.

Unfortunately, that album has long gone, but I do have 4 tracks on 'Larks From The Ark' - Conscious Man, Brotherly Love, Cool Down and Colour - http://www.roots-archives.com/release/261

I have seen there is a CD of the album Conscious Man - http://www.roots-archives.com/release/66-, but haven't managed to track it down. Has anyone seen it in their travels?

Can anyone tell me more about them?

Thanks.

Hi John Public

I only have the 4 tracks mentioned earlier and of those 'Brotherly Love' probably takes the honours.

Where did you get the CD? Is it readily available still?

I got that from Irie Records in Germany...

Brotherly Love is the best song on that Album

Thanks John Public

Just had a quick look. There doesn't appear to be a search facility. How do find anything?

Do you download each individual catalogue?

Apologies if I am being totally stupid!

Thanks.

Well usually I call Carlo (that's the owner of Irie Records) on phone or contact him via email. He sends you that catalogue also via email.
