A word to the wiseguy/girl

Dillinger – Ragnampiza – Black Swan
“My name is Ragnampiza and I don’t eat fertilizer” toasted the great Dillinger in the 1970’s and he’s right, I’ve just walked down the garden and smelt the new load of comfrey water fermenting and it don’t half whiff. It’s not the sort of stuff you want to ingest!

Brand new second hand, man

The Creary Sisters – The morning in the sky – Glory Records

I’d always go for the old looking 7″ singles without middles in them from Jamaica as it would be a good chance they’d be reggae related (especially this one with 37 Orange St, Kingston on it!) but I was proved wrong in this instance. This is a  piece of Jamaican Gospel (a bit scratched and slightly warped) from 1969 on the obscure Glory label produced by the late Miss Sonia Pottinger (of the High Note, Tip Top and Gayfeet labels).
