Tiger - Shocking Colour


A contribution from Armando

Even by ragga deejay standards, Tiger's style is far from harmonious, usualy provoking wild animal metaphors appropiate to his name. But while he doesn't say a great deal other than the expected self-aggrandizement, you should listen to how one of the most inventive and original deejays says it. "Boom Bastic" (his cut of "Who She Love") is the only big hit included, but the same standard is kept for all the tracks.

This is a special album for me as it is one of the very first dancehall albums I ever bought....

Papa Levi - Code Of Practice

As some might well know, i am a massive supporter of Uk reggae in all genres. This is one of my favourite albums from the legendary Ariwa studios, produced by a old friend called The Mad Professor. Released in 1990 with the unmistakable sounds of hard bass lines, echoes, reverbs etc etc, Papa Levi chats concious lyrics and topics of that era in a style which i am sure you will like. Uk digi style. Respect every time.

Stone Love - Live


Big thanks to Crucial B for sharing the album "Stone Love in JA & Uk".
The second was already on the blog, it was posted by Sliver Star, who, as I've heard, will be back soon on the blog, we're looking forward to that...

Best Of Champions

This album is produced, played, mixed and most songs sung by Wayne Smith. Its recorded at Sleng Teng studios with the help of Lloyd "Bullwackies" Barnes.
This - with the posts before - is about everything I have from Wackies in digital style, it would be very nice if someone could link some more albums or 45s as I can't find nothing for some years now...

45s and LPs that i know that exists:
So don't sit on your lazy bum, dust off some Wackies...

Silver Cat - In A Foul Affair

Shabba Ranks - Best Baby Father


Happy new year to everyone !!!

A Bobby Digital album that really established Shabba's name. Upon its release in 1989, Best Baby Father caused the kind of excitement that is usualy the preserve of hit 45s in the reggae world. The Jamaican hit "Peanie Peanie" is the equal of anything that was to follow. Thanks to Ninja B for the resources and treasures.
