Who are the Moonrocks ?
I have a couple of really good 12" tracks by this group.
One is called "Have No Fear" and the other "Unite Jah People".
Both feature Prince Jazzbo.
Can anyone tell me anything about them.
Thanks
Dave

Seem like guys called "The Moonrocks" backed the UK reggae sides of the label SUN TAN. They are certainly the same people as the both sides on bushays are credited to the Moonrocks with the name *(Jimmy Mack)* added below...
Check it here:

You can check the other side of the 12" on the copy I sold

Hopefully I have another
Now there is another reggae release called "A little bit of your time" here credited to "The Moonrocks" on the SUN TAN label
http://cgi.ebay.co.uk/MOONROCKS-Bit-Of- ... 240%3A1318
This same tune is credited on the 12" (check Francisco Records) to *Jimmy Mack*. So they are the same.
Now there is at lest a third tune on 7" on this label credited to them:

I have never heard any of them and havedoub those singles are tuff... If anybody got one of them, please confirm!

Hi Litelet
I only have the two 12" tracks that I mention above. Both are taken from the Bushay 12".
"Have no Fear" is a real tuff track and "Unite Jah People" is just as good.
There is no mention of them on RA and i just wondered who they were and if there were any other tracks to look out.

So *Hurtful Dub* and *Bit Of Your Time*, at least, are by them, both on the SUN TAN label.
