More Dennis Brown earthstrong dubs. Don’t know much about this aside from it was a Bunny Lee tape. Sounds like Chinna and Santa to me very early 80’s πŸ›

Sorry didn’t read what you wrote quite right then! I didn’t realise it was a later mix I just thought it was a diff cut from the time that Gussie must have had. What’s the point indeed

It’s a different and not as sparse/good mix. Give it a listen. I think Bunny Lee must have lost the tape or something cos not like him to leave anything unreleased! There is an American press which sounds awful compared to the pre

Happy Birthday to my fave Jamaican singer of all time. The incomparable Dennis Emmanuel Brown. Here at the peak of his powers. This 45 is still only available on this nice and loud JA pre release from the period.

Rapid social change? What has been rapid about it? I'm 53 and it's always been a mixed demographic. You're covering for people justifying ignorance. Maybe your friends should read a history book and have some humility

They're putting stuff up every Friday afternoon. Some stuff is cheaper than you might expect. I got his copy of Jack Roses' last LP and an Alan Lomax LP ( Heather & Glen ) for 60 and 35 respectively. PJ was expensive but couldn't help it 😬

I’m temporarily without cassette deck so had to get one of these We Are Rewind things to listen to this un-released ( I think ) Rid Of Me era PJ Harvey tape from Steve Albini’s estate sale. She’s the best!

The funny thing about a certain type of angry conspiracy guy is that they’re literally being confronted with an elite paedophile ring and a tyrannical government at the same time right now, and because it isn't being done by the people they wanted it to be done by they’re all being pussies about it
