early 80s reggae track, IIRC the twelve inch came in an all deep red sleeve. Great brass backing track. Not much too go on I know. Would have been a John Peel favourite.

how does it go? Can you hum it to us?

You are still alive Rog! Sorry this doesn’t help, I am just surprised to see you.

Misty in Roots were JP’s fave reggae band if that helps.

Coincidentally, I listened to a track today on Youtube that had JP introducing it. Made me quite emotional.

hi mark, long time no ride.

Pass the Duchie, Musical Youth?

no, but around the same time.

Specials – Rudy?

Warrior charge?

thanks but none of those.

A band? A singer? male? female?

Stop That Train, Clint Eastwood & General Saint?

not that. ensemble band male singer. very distinctive brass/trumpet sound.

Aswad?
Black Uhuru?
Steel Pulse?
Burning Spear?

Birmingham Reggae or funny far off reggae?

Gregory Isaacs – Night Nurse

Dennis Brown; Money in My pocket

– can’t remember if there’s a decent brass section on either

don’t think it was by any of those, they weren’t a “big name” act. Listening to some great stuff looking for it though 🙂

Night Nurse , did ring a bell but it wasn’t that.

well it’s got a lot of brass and’s ska

It’s bugging me now

Ine Kamoze ?
