Reviews

  • Don Prendes  - Ska -Ba- Doo- Be-DayDon Prendes Ska -Ba- Doo- Be-Day

    Don Prendes sang with Pablo Moses in the 'Canaries' which eventually morphed into Pablo Moses harmony singers for the classic Revolutionary Dream album. He cut a few sides for himself and on this production by the Chung brothers he takes the lead vocal. Top notch roots.

  • Horace Andy - Children of IsraelHorace AndyChildren of Israel

    An excellent double header from Horace Andy and Augustus Pablo. Both sides are on the 'Children of Israel' rhythm and date from around 1975. Horace Andys vocals for Leonard Chin were always superb and 'Children of Israel' is no exception.

  • Augustus Pablo - ColumboAugustus PabloColumbo

    A Fragile twisted record that sounds like it was squeezed through a very high frequency mangler before being committed to vinyl! They truly do not make records like this anymore.
