This one i didnt know anything at all about it tbh, just saw it in a charity shop yesterday for 50 pence and it looked "interesting"
turns out its a 1980 coventry ska band and this was their first and only lp.
it's also the band that predated king, Primitives and eyeless in gaza.

Fuckin great man!!
Thank you so much for sharing this!!
No problem dude, glad to give back to the "blog scene" that people actually want :)
Nice post _ I've wanted to hear this for may a year.

Cool. Thank you.
no worries peeps enjoy
its definitely a most wanted album
so far its had 137 downloads in a week
mind u i think its mostly down to tone and marco and the other guys on the ska music blog scene advertising it
would anybody say its one of the hardest to get ska releases?
or one of the most sought after maybe?
Wow, almost 150 downloads and only 3 comments. Don't you love that?
I'm sure I speak for myself when I say this but it's really not that rare of a record. There are more common things which are readily available and we have those, so we pursue the rarities and in our pursuit of the rare we brush aside records like these. This is the middle child between common and rare so it's easy to overlook it time and time again. This has been on eBay several times but whenever I went to buy it I was always sidetracked by something less common.
It is a great record and again I thank you for posting it as well as a couple other 'middle childs' I've been meaning to get for a while - "Echo Base - Buy Me", and "The Rhythmites - Integration"
cool dude, thanks for the info, and glad you found some other stuff of interest too.
like i said in its post the rythmites album is possibly my favourite reggae album of all time, and i cant believe it gets overlooked
well maybe up there with misty in roots - live counter eurovision, steel pulse - handsworth revolution and peter tosh - legalize it
many thanks for this!!!
if it wasn't for you bloggers this album would never been known to me or other ska,reggae etc fans!!!
keep the faith!!!

thanks for posting this, my brother had it years ago and i used to sneak into his room to play it all the time! been looking for it for years
thanks for the kind comments peeps, makes what we do feel appreciated and worthwhile :)
Thank you so much for this. I bought this album on vinyl in 1980 and played it so much I just about wore it out.
Fat & 50 now, but this really bring those memories of a misspent youth flooding back.....
thanx for sharing! i came redirected from tone and wave blog. these days i'm lookin for rare 80s ska bands... thanx!
Great record which I bought in 1986. It's rare enough as is the Headline from the same period which I have not seen anywhere for download. I've also got the 7" of Confused Action which is never on ebay. Thanks for that mate.
Yay! A divshare infinite loop! Just what I spend hours searching the internet for.
Is it possible to re-upload this?
please please re-up. I would love to hear this...
Man - So sorry I only just found this and now it is gone - Urgh - I have scanned the internet (but not blogs) to buy a download of this album. Please re-up if possible
