TOAD Posted July 5, 2013 Share Posted July 5, 2013 One of my latest favorite is sir scorcher and the black emeralds " record breaker" jan disc. The sort of boss/skinhead reggae 45 that had it came out in the UK at the time would be fetching big money ! But know its a new release from the usa and very very authentic it is even looks like a uk release. Available on i tunes and you can hear it via youtube worth a listen 1 Link to comment Social source share More sharing options...

Available on i tunes and you can hear it via youtube worth a listen Tim, that's uncanny, I had that arrive TODAY, as you say, looks and sounds just like a 1968 British release. Great stuff, and one of the few attempts at recreating the early reggae sounds that's ever worked. Link to comment Social source share More sharing options...

Pete S Posted August 13, 2013 Share Posted August 13, 2013 DAVE McLAREN 'LOVE IS WHAT I BRING' Been after this on ages since I found it came out on UK. I had it on a Jamaican blank but sold it ages ago. It is of course Dave "Collins" Barker. Link to comment Social source share More sharing options...
dean jj Posted August 13, 2013 Share Posted August 13, 2013 afternoon vicar....it is is of course a cover of the manhattans 'i'm the one that love forgot' or something, now my tawdry ex-employee and good friend in peckham has a blank, and I think the name on his maybe somebody else! Can't get him on the phone but will respond again on the very 'morrow. theortically. dean Link to comment Social source share More sharing options...

Soul-slider Posted August 15, 2013 Share Posted August 15, 2013 1. Skinhead Speaks His Mind - Hot Rod All Stars (Hot Rod) 2. Skinhead Revolt - Joe's All Stars (Joe) 3. Skinhead Train - Laurel Aitken (Nu-Beat) 4. Skinhead Moondust - Hot Rod All Stars (Torpedo) 5. Skinhead Train - The Charmers (Explosion) 6. Skinhead A Bash Them - Claudette (Grape) 7. Skinhead A Message To You - Desmond Riley (Downtown) 8. Skinheads Are Wrecking The Town - ? (Ackee blank) 9. Skinhead Invasion (Apollo 12) - Laurel Aitken (Nu Beat blank) 10.Skinhead Shuffle - The Mohawks (Pama) Not really my top ten, but I am a fan of late 60's/early 70's UK recorded Reggae especially the Cimarons stuff. I do have all the above on original 45's (bought them when nobody wanted them) and some are very tough to find. Not everyone's cup of tea, but for novelty/nostalgia value, lovely!

You're right about them not being everyone's cup of tea, I wouldn't touch them with a bargepole! Unlike yourself, I find most UK produced reggae unlistenable with a few exceptions, mainly from Dandy and his artists on DownTown. Not that Desmond Riley record though, his Lead Them and Tear Them are great though, I think Desmond Riley is probably Dandy anyway. But you've got a great collection there, value wise.

Soul-slider Posted August 15, 2013 Share Posted August 15, 2013 I agree Pete, for me, the Desmond Riley 'Skinhead...' 45 is terrible, probably my least favourite out of that 10, Mike De Koningh loves it though! The Mohawks ain't much better either. I do like the Cimarons cookin' sound on some of the Hot Rod 45's, and as you say, Dandy's backing group The Rudies/Music Doctors are a great band. My real top 10 would consist of Prince Buster, Uniques, Bob Andy etc. Link to comment Social source share More sharing options...
