Cortez the Killer

That's the gem on this one of course

Let’s be real, though — they’re all gems.

@popvulture also a valid assessment

Next up this morning is this bootleg.
I think the only official release of the Barry/ Louis Armstrong tune was on a Northern Ireland Peace comp in the early 90s

[Aetas]

The address on this fine bootleg let me scratch my head @GraemeE .
Lo and behold it must be a tactic for diverting, because there is really only an ARAL filling station .

Una Quena A Traves De Los Andes

Great Christmas Records mentioned over the last days.
When I was a child, a lot of South American folk groups showed up in December and went busking the city centers.

My all time favourite Christmas album.
Bach always works.

[Aetas]

Absolutely @endo

UB40-Signing Off

Story behind.
This is the underrated debut of a band, I only own this heavy played record.
When I started listening to music, I was at first totally into the second wave of ska.
This band was linked to this in the early 80’.
Got this through a trade for the blue Beatles album I had a spare, two years after its release.
It’s an Italian pressing, which was common at this time and totally abused over the decades now.

The strangest appetizer I found digital.
45 R.P.M Side Four

Record Sessions started 1979 on a 8-tracks recording machine.
This new Electronic Ska/Reggae made a perfect start for all of this beautiful DUB that came thereafter …

Cheers! Hope y’all have a great weekend.

[Aetas]

Wonderful atmosphere and remarkable record.
Heard him once live as the opener for the Rolling Stones 94 and he blew us all away with his energy!

That’s awesome @Aetas I'm jealous you got to see him live. One of my favorites for sure.
