70's reggae 12" mix

[petergunn]

did a mix of reggae 12"s from 1976 onwards.... (as far as i know there are none from previous to 76!)... been really digging on the dub styles you hear on 12"s, as opposed to albums or 7"s, it's a totally different approach... there is this window from like 76-79 where you get real roots style, but in a 12" format... two nice tracks on the Guiding Star riddim here...

Looks nice - what label did that Blue Boy tune come out on originally? I have a seven inch repress from last year...

funny, i was just telling someone else how that track was ungooglable, maybe i need to step up my google skills.., is the 7" the entire track?

i don't have the record in front of me, but i believe the label is called "B&B",,, it def seems like a brooklyn produced record... i'll write down the full details when i get home...








edit: yup doublechecked it... "B&B" is the name of the label, out of Brooklyn...
