Anyone knows what these are like (not tracklists, but style and overall quality of the music, good / bad, worth getting etc)? I know most artists, but not these specific albums.

* Hugh Griffiths - Stand Up (GG Hit)

* Robert Ffrench - Wondering (Blue Mountain)

* Wayne Wade - Evil Woman (Vivian Jackson)

* Screwdriver - Let me remind you (Testimonial Music)

* Owen Gray - None of Jah Jah Children Would Ever Suffer (Imperial)

* Major Mackerel - Nuh Run Dun Man (Crat)

* Lenky Roy - Rastaman unity (Napthalie Roy)

* King Culture & I&I Records - Roots & Culture (Drum & Bass)

* Junior Brammer - Hold Your Corner (Live & Learn)

* Junior Brammer - Telephone Line (John Dread Productions)

* Ashanti Waugh - Love Child (Black Solidarity)

Thanks for any info.

That King Culture is a must have. 2 deadly tunes on there.

Hugh Griffith set is pretty good dancehall orientated.
Not as good as "Mr Walker", "Showcase" or "Mother Africa" but still worth having. Pretty smart cover though of him on front looking pretty cool wearing sun glasses.

Robert French album is not bad, stand out tracks being "Wondering" and "You are so special to me". I found with all Robert Ffrench albums that they usually have 2 or 3 excellent tracks and the rest are usually just average. Guess its all down to what you wanna pay fore the couple of good tracks

Owen Grey album is the best, highly reccomended, excellent roots oreintated album.

Others I don`t know.

Yeah, that Various Artist KC LP is a crucial set. http://www.flickr.com/photos/iamthegorgon/2824961906/

It's up on eBay now too for anyone that might be interested.

Thanks for the info, all! Appreciated.
