Several nice reissues but still the rub-a-dub 80's are being overlooked for the 70's roots or late 80's digital. Which is a pity for a rubbadubba like me.

Prince Allah's Showcase on Archive wasn't a reissue per se but a mighty mighty fine release of 80's recordings.

I did also enjoy Lion Youth's Three Million On The Dole (Virgo Stomach 12").

Dandy Lion - Vives (Kulumi 7") was a very welcome reissue of a great (but overrated) song.

Cultural Roots - Hell A Go Pop (Volcano 12") I think was from 2009 and a mighty wicked disco with the flip by Sammy Dread almost being as good.

When it comes to digital stuff I must give humongous respect to DigiKiller who managed to get the incredible Philip Myers - Getho Struggle (Junior Militant 7") reissued!

I haven't gotten around to buy the Joe Gibbs compilations of 12" discomixes. That one ought to be good.
