Re-Post
Beya Moke – Various Artists
RCA Africana 1977
Blog friend Pete asked me to rip this album again as two
takes, side-A and side-B to avoid the nasty cuts. He is right
to wish for it, the skips were sometimes put at the wrong
place. The best listening experience is as two complete sides.
I removed the previous posting of this great record. Nowadays
I always follow this simple rule, no more nasty cuts ..
Blog vriend Pete vroeg me deze plaat opnieuw te rippen als
tracks, kant-A en kant-B om de slechte cuts te vermijden. Hij
heeft groot gelijk, de nummer wisselingen zaten soms wat
scheef. Het luistert het lekkerst gewoon als twee volledige
kanten. Ik heb de eerdere post van deze plaat verwijderd.
Tegenwoordig volg ik telkens deze simpele methode,
geen foute cuts meer dus ..

Prince Buster – Fabulous Greatest Hits
Fab Fab Melodisc Music 1968
There’s hardly a man, woman or child in Jamaica who doesn’t
know the voice of Prince Buster. Turn on the radio any hour of
the day or night, and his infectious Blue Beat is certain to start
echoing round the room. His records dominate the jukeboxes,
and wherever he appears, the “House Full” signs are displayed
long before he makes his entrance on stage. ( backsleeve ..)
Prince Buster’s Blue Beat, later called Ska, conquered England
and America already in the sixties. Later his songs were covered
by many groups such as the Specials when ska music relived
from the late seventies. Contains his famous Al Capone
and Ten Commandments. Get it & spread it ..
