THE SKATALITES - JAMES BOND
I’m 0018. They’ve changed the system.
THE DYNAMITES - LAST CALL
Drumbago is one of my favourite musicians. His tunes are always up to such a high standard. Apparently, this is a tribute from The Dynamites to Drumbago who died in 1969. Some say he died in the early 1970s but Sam Sham released a tune in 1969 called ‘Drumbago’ with lyrics about him kicking the bucket (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=nwy4g14QSyo) so I think that’s conclusive. A flautist and a drummer! I dare http://captainbovverboots.tumblr.com/ to take up the flute.
THE WAILING WAILERS - ROLLING STONE
Like a rolling stone.
THE ETHIOPIANS - LIVE GOOD
I’ve never been keen on The Ethiopians vocals but their tunes speak for themselves sometimes. Especially in 1968 and 1969! REGGAE HIT THE TOWN!
DERRICK MORGAN - BLAZING FIRE
The version to this has giant Chinese gongs in the background. How about that for some rivalry between Morgan and Prince Buster. Check ‘Black Head Chinaman’.
THE HI TONES - BETSY MY LOVE
Tell me pretty baby, that you love me too.
What a load of smooth bastards.
TOMMY MCCOOK - PEANUT VENDOR
Whenever I eat, see or hear anything to do with peanuts I can’t get the image of George Dawes shouting PEANUTS on Shooting Stars out of my head. Thanks Matt Lucas.
PRINCE BUSTER - GEORGE IS A FAKE
If this is referring to Georgie Fame then Buster has gone down in my estimations. If not then he’s cool…we cool. I forgive him because it’s a banger.
