Monday Long Song


Staying on a reggae tip again this week, here's Linval Roy Carter, better known to the world at large as Prince Jazzbo, with 'Crabwalking', a 1972 Coxone Dodd produced reworking of Horace Andy's classic 'Skylarking'.

Red Gold & Green #10 - Vin Gordon


Here's one that sometimes causes a bit of confusion. The mighty 'Heavenless' has long been credited to Don Drummond Jr & The Skatalites, although in reality, the trombone on this Clement Dodd produced Studio One scorcher is the work of Vin Gordon. I only own this classic tune on CD, though I'm pleased to note that Soul Jazz Records have recently reissued it on 12". I have to say that I'm extremely tempted.

Red Gold & Green #3 - The Wailing Souls


It was my own stupid fault. I walked into a door frame yesterday, while wearing nothing on my feet. First the air turned blue, closely followed by my little toe. Ouch. Here are The Wailing Souls with 'Walk, Walk, Walk', a Clement 'Coxsone' Dodd produced single from 1971. Walk, walk, walk? More like hobble, hobble, hobble at the moment.
