Description
TO CUT A VERY LONG STORY SHORT IN THE 80'S A FEARLESS WHITE BOY WENT TO JA TO WATCH ENGLAND GET LICKED. I ALSO WENT TO RANDYS RECORDS, BOB'S HOUSE IN HOPE ROAD AND BRENTFORD RD THE HEART OF COXSONE DODD'S EMPIRE. THE MAN WAS THERE WITH A COUPLE OF 'MATES' EATING HIS CHICKEN RICE AND PEAS. EVERYONE WAS VERY NICE I DON'T THINK MANY WHITE KIDS BOWLED UP TOO OFTEN. ANYWAY A ONE EYED DREAD WHO TURNS UP IN THE "CATCH A FIRE" BOOK SOLD ME AS MANY RECORDS THAT I THOUGHT I COULD CART ROUND JA FOR THE NEXT TWO WEEKS. WHEN I WENT TO RANDYS THE TAXI DRIVER SAID DID I WANT HIM TO WAIT . I SAID NO I AM GOING TO GO WALKABOUT AFTER HERE. HE LOOKED AT ME LIKE I WAS MAD AND SAID "BWOY, I HOPE YOU KNOW WHAT YOU ARE DOING!". ANYWAY NO PROBS BUT I DIDN'T HIT TIVOLI GARDENS OR TRENCHTOWN. ANYWAY I HAVE NEVER PLAYED THESE RECORDS THE VINYL LOOKS LIKE TYPICAL JA VINYL. I PURCHASED A NEW COPY OF "THE HARDER THEY COME" AND IT WAS ABOUT AN INCH THICK AND LOOKED LIKE IT WAS MADE FROM AN OLD CAR TYRE.
