Great film and soundtrack. ranks alongside The Harder They Come and my favourite Rockers which features literally a who’s who of Jamaican artists at the time…
Walking cool with Leroy Horsemouth Wallace, Gregory Isaac’s, Jacob Miller, Robbie Shakespeare in this scene set to Peter Tosh Stepping Razor
And my favourite scene, the hilarious takeover where Horsemouth and Dirty Harry literally take the Rockers uptown, tune is The Jayes Queen Majesty. Move ya…!

Anyone remember Prince Charles & The City Beat Band back in the early '80s? Happy days!
This gorgeous Bobbie Gentry performance on The Ed Sullivan Show on Xmas Eve 1967 appeared out of nowhere last night on both YouTube and Spotify. I’ve dropped Andrew Batt a note asking if this is part of a new project… one can hope, can’t one?

Ricky Wilson was such an amazing guitarist – everything was pared down to its raw essentials, he was so precise, so… rhythmic, so powerful, so exciting and fresh. He was the beating heart of the B52s, and they were never quite as good after he died.

I’ve not really listened to anything post Ricky Wilson other than the commercial single Love Shack which to me wasnt a patch on the earlier stuff. Not for any particular reason, just that the above debut LP, Wild Planet and Party Mix were all played a lot amongst my circle of friends at this time. The first LP is still my go to selection.
I wasnt aware of the death of Ricky Wilson but maybe this had something to do with my losing interest.
