I see Levi Roots mixes his music as well as he does his sauce.

Great stuff

These old rastas love to mutli-task. Go on - stick some reggae up then, Hiney!

 

[CHAPPERS]

Oh SWEET. All over this.

 

[Hiney]

Give me 30 mins - got stuff to do

Most inconvenient!!

Jah Screechy........wow that takes me back. He used to toast in Balham and then released "walk n skank" which was then extensively sampled by SL2 amongst others.
I think I might just get me anorak!!
Dave from Prague who posts on here has given us some of the most awesome downloads for Reggae

Cool, Hiney! Ooh, by the way - do you and your son want my tickets for the Plymouth night game on Feb 22nd? I think it's half-term that week so he could go along without worrying about school the next day. I will be out the country that week so can't go.

Sadly still havnt got net access at home due to laziness. I get a lot of mixes and dances from dancehallreggae.com, go to forums and for the cream of dances go to who cork the dance. I've been feeling guilty about the thread.

Bugger!

They are at Grandma & Grandads for the first part of half term so will have to pass. Thanks for the offer though, as always.
