Half Pint - One Big Ghetto / Tonto Irie - Ram Up Every Corner
Jammys / Dub Store Records JPN 1984
¥2180 (US$14.97)
Without mentioning Half Pint, the true story about the Jammys label can never be told. King Jammy adopted a classic song 'Open The Gate' and versioned the rhythm digitally. The young Half Pint claims this wild world is 'One Big Ghetto'. On the flip side, Tonto Irie showcases his skillful and edgy lyrical flow to the same rhythm.
Eek A Mouse - Sensimania / Roots Radics
Thompson Sound 1982
Sensi Party B: No More War In The Ghetto
¥980 (US$6.73)
Barry Brown - Jah Jah We Are Calling / Take Your Time
Channel One / Digikiller / Deeper Knowledge US
¥2180 (US$14.97)
Killer previously unreleased Barry Brown from Channel 1, from early '80s sessions that at one point were slated to make up his aborted second LP for the label. Two slow and heavy Radics rhythms, no doubt these were played on dubplate by some of the sounds of the day.
Earl Sixteen - Nighthawk Rider (Coloured Vinyl) / Music Machine
Channel One / Digikiller / Deeper Knowledge US
¥2180 (US$14.97)
The Lost & Found series charges ahead, with killer unreleased tunes from Earl Sixteen.

Patrick Cool - Father Nature / Dub
Jah Life US 198-
¥1380 (US$9.48)
More previously unreleased heat from the Jah Life camp. These four awesome cuts on the same rhythm are again from mid '80s sessions at Channel 1 studio with the Gifted Roots Band. Great vocal cuts from under-recorded artists all around - Flick Wilson, Patrick Cool, Nathan Skyers and Lee Van Cliff (singing in a Tenor Saw-ish style!) Fantastic hard as nails stuff that should hit the spot for fans of the mid '80s sound.
Freddie McGregor, One Vibe Band - No Competition / Joe Gibbs & The Professionals - Don't Try It
