Seven seven inch singles selection

One of the good things in life is looking through a pile of seven inch singles and not thinking too much about the tunes and putting together a mix (in the old days it would be on one of those cassette tape things). Below is a quick one put together this evening after looking through a couple of piles of records that haven’t been played for a while.

We were influenced by a post by The Rhythm Doctor on Facebook about a recent mix of his from 7” singles for MOJO Estonia and Sugar B‘s “supermix” show on Charisma FM 87.8 Mhz where all sorts of reggae singles are played in any order.

Here’s the first Seven seven inch singles selection in the pot and here’s the tracklisting:
Jah Cure – Longing for version/drop leaf rhythm
Alton Ellis & The Flames – Ain’t that loving you
Ras Ibuna/Village Bunch – Diverse Doctrine Version
Pablove Black – Chaunting Dread
Anthony B – Stop Fight
Jah Woosh – Shine Eye Gal Version Part 2
Yabby You/King Tubby’s – Chant Down babylon Version

We welcome other mixes and don’t worry too much about the genres just put them on and if they sound good…

And finally we found it

We’ve been hearing this record for many months as a “sign on” tune for Sugar B‘s show on 4tuneFM and aways wanted to know what it was called. And lo and behold we heard it this morning on Vintage Obscure Radio one of our favourite shows at the moment. It’s Willie Lindo with Midnight. Tune in for more suprises here.

The truth on a Tuesday morning

We were listening to the excellent Sugar B show on his daily 7-10 am spot on 4Tune FM and today being a Tuesday it was full of roots and culture classics. It was brilliant to hear this belter of a tune “The Thruth Theme” from a few years ago made by the great Joey Jay and co. A tune and a half!

Do yourself a favour and tune into Sugar B in the morning (he’s also on from 3pm-6pm on a Sunday too)!
