Yes, very good. Gutted I haven’t got round to seeing them live yet.If anyone fancies a modern take on all this the Skints are very good
Horseman who toasts/performs with them has a cracking album “night of the living dread”Yes, very good. Gutted I haven’t got round to seeing them live yet.
Grew up listening to a lot on Two Tone. Specials Madness Selector and The Beat were all decent back then. I met Jerry Dammers from the Specials backstage at a Hard Fi gig once. He was a bit...odd.
I’ll give that a go today.Horseman who toasts/performs with them has a cracking album “night of the living dread”
The Cluny is the best around for reggae bands. I’ve seen Culture there twice, The Abbysinnians, Misty in Roots and a couple of others. And U Roy in Edinburgh.Are there any good Sunderland/ Newcastle- based nights that people go to?
Did a ska night at The Cluny last year and it was quality.
Kiss my face - I'm a fan of The Gladiators, Culture, Black Uhuru, and The Abbysinnians! Have you ever tried getting in touch with Burning Spear? Or too old now?The Cluny is the best around for reggae bands. I’ve seen Culture there twice, The Abbysinnians, Misty in Roots and a couple of others. And U Roy in Edinburgh.
The bloke who used to promote the bands around here was a bloke called Wilf from London, but he retired a couple of years ago. I’m in touch with The Gladiators trying to arrange a gig for them at the Cluny when it’s possible. There’s a bloke in Newcastle now, Rem Marley who’s started to promote reggae bands.
The last Culture gig at the Cluny was cancelled, one of them couldn’t get a visa, same thing happed to Mykal Rose from Black Uhuru.
To be honest, I haven’t heard a great deal of Burning Spear, I’ve got a couple of his songs on compilation cd’s. He must be knocking on a bit now like? U Roy was mid 70’s when I saw him a couple of years ago, still good.Love this...
