Beastie Boys - Mixed and Mashed


My tribute to the late great MCA Adam Yauch.its a compilation of mashups etc featuring,the clash,joe strummer,depeche mode,the muppets!,the ramones etc etc.theres 14 tracks in total including one which isnt a mashup but is the hard to get single 'rock hard' which samples back in black by ac/dc so it almost is.anyway whilst listening spare a moment to think of Adam and his great contribution to music from punk to hip hop and so much in between.R.I.P MCA

Joe Strummer - This is Radio Joe



a nice compilation this, consisting of a don letts radio 6 show tribute to joe strummer and 4 'episodes' of joe strummers show for the bbc world service.i dont know a track list for joes shows but after a quick listen it strikes me as being a kind of john peel type of show where joe would play whatever he liked which included the ramones, big youth, ella fitzgerald etc.each of joes shows lasts about 30 mins so they make ideal podcast kind of listening.anyway they make for an interesting listen and i like them and hope you will too.so once again kids its time to listen, enjoy and leave a comment.thanks!

The Adolescents - Adolescents



after listening to a cassette tape recently(yes we still listen to them sometimes at muebles towers!) a friend of mine gave me about 20 years ago and reading through a book of old flyers called 'fucked up and photocopied' i decided to post this great cd from californian hardcore band The Adolescents.its got 16 tracks in total, 13 from the album and 3 tracks from a bonus e.p called Welcome to Reality.This is a post for fans of bands like Bad Religion,The Vandals, Pennywise etc etc.This is their debut album from 1981 and needs to be played loud.ive got a load more from this band if anyone has any requests for them.so now on St.Patricks Day please listen,enjoy and then leave a comment.thanks!


Ruts DC v Mad Professor v Zion Train




This collection contains the Ruts DC & Mad Professor album RHYTHM COLLISION DUB VOL. 1 (1982) plus the remixed version by Zion Train RHYTHM COLLISION REMIX (1999).a re-release of Ruts DC's definitive punk/reggae fusion record Rhythm Collision Vol. 1. This version is further enhanced with five 12'' bonus and vocal remixes. Originally released on the band's own Bohemian Records, this album was immensely influential in UK punk/reggae circles, and was subsequently re-released on the New York Roir label.

i got this version on a cdr from camden dave unfortunately with no covers so ive had to use what i could find on the interweb.sorry about that.if anyone has the cover from this is there any chance they could scan and post somewhere for me?i do like to burn all the cds i get and have covers for them so that would be lovely.

ok then you can skank about slowly while you listen to this,enjoy the vibes, then walk to the computer and type a comment.thanks so much!
