Jkpnefc Posted August 3, 2011 Posted August 3, 2011 Anybody remember a 45 approx 70/71 i think it was called "Cricket" a reggae single that used to get quite a few plays on radio but i can't find any reference to it anywhere am i imagining it or what?? Any info a help Cheers John
John Moffatt Posted August 4, 2011 Posted August 4, 2011 There are a couple of obvious candidates like 10cc - Dreadlock Holiday, or Booker T - Soul Limbo. After that, it's a struggle.
Jkpnefc Posted August 4, 2011 Author Posted August 4, 2011 no nothing run of the mill like that mate used to be a chorus that went cricky cricky cricky cricket!!! was a trojan type reggae track played a lot on luxembourg if my memory is correct
John Moffatt Posted August 4, 2011 Posted August 4, 2011 Didn't think so, to be honest, nor Lord Beginner - Cricket Lovely Cricket, which is Calypso anyway. It's a good question you've posed .
Jkpnefc Posted August 10, 2011 Author Posted August 10, 2011 nope thay are more calypso was there a group called the Crickets(not Buddy Hollys)? think i'll be taking this one to my grave 11Cheers for replys John
