I've still got the original NME advert from West Knoll Dr. where SS advertised all manner of unknowns and current big sounds.

Dave Wilkins who like me has been around since the mid 60's now does a Ska / Reggae night on different dates from his regular soul nights at the Tamworth Progressive club - both worth a look if either are your thing. Good venue as well. Also I remember Tim Brown auctioning an absolute fantastic pounding Jamaican 45 a few years ago - made a note of it somewhere but it's lost - and I remember going to the Nite-Owl Birmingham a few yrs ago ( all-nighter) and a punter gave Carl & Maria Willingham some right stick for playing a reggae type sound. I told she'd better stick with George Pepp and the Tomangoes - So she did and dedicated them to me.
