There are more than a few good cd's released lately including:
* See Spot - Who Got It? - Only the 2nd release from the classic LA
trad ska band that really needs no interduction. Check out
www.seespotska.com for more info.
* Dubshine - Compilation of great dub outings from some promising
new bands around the states. More info at www.spishine.org
* Jamaica 69 7 inch - A 4 track outing from this Mexico City band
that sounds and looks very vintage. More info at
www.lawlessrecords.com
* Steady Ups - Soul of the City - The debut album from this Northern
California band. Check out www.jumpuprecords.com
* The offical release date for the re-release of Hepcat's "out of
Nowhere" is March 23rd. The album will include all 13 tracks that
appeared on the original release as well as two bonus
tracks, "Nigel" and "Club Meditation".
* King Terror VS. The Aggrolites- "Cemetary Dub", will be released
on AXE Records ( http://www.axerecords.com ) in April. All of the
songs are new. This dub album was a side project for The Aggrolites.
All of the songs were recorded one Sunday afternoon in about 3
hours. The styles range from roots to dancehall . The songs are
original, but pay homage to the dub engineers of their respective
time periods(i.e.-'74ish 'Roots' like King Tubby. Late
70's 'Rockers' like Prince Jammy. Early 80's 'Dancehall' like
Scientist). Be prepared to dance!
