Don 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 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 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.

The DynamitesRed Moon
Spaced out instrumental from The Dynamites. Clancy Eccles early 70s productions were often much more frantic than this. But 'Red Moon' is a laid back stroll that plays off and and around the Blue Moon melody.

Aleas Jube Righteous Land
Never before released as a 45 and a true obscurity!! Little is
known about Aleas Jube other than that he was a character who hung

piece of music led by an excellent drum pattern that propels Aleas
Jubes vocals into the Black Ark stratosphere.
Time Unlimited Rastaman Going Home (African Sound)
Screaming hypnotic and essential from Time Unlimited. Perry and the Black Ark at its best.
