Record Store Day 2018 - rumours

[John Eden]

1. Sonia George "Girly Girly" 18 LP boxset - with unreleased dubplate cuts previously run by Fatman, Stone Love etc. Also a DVD of interviews and live performances ripped off YouTube.

2. "Greensleeves takes the **** out of Scientist" 5 LP boxset of all the classics with a cartoon of a well known dub mixer crying on the steps of a courthouse.

3. Jah Shaka - Brimstone and Fire LP Picture Disc - exclusive re-release featuring a photograph of Jah Shaka looking bewildered.

4. Musical Youth - "Jim'll Fix It Theme" 7" - poor taste nostalgic effort now tinged with horror.

5. Riddim Driven 300 X 7" boxset. Every single tune VP released in their legendary series, now re-repressed on seven inches instead of LP format. Comes in a box in the shape of fridge for no obviously good reason.

there's no 'like' button on this forum. So, er, I like this.

I heard Trojan was going to release a special box set of all the LPs they ever released. And re-released. And re-re-released. You get the idea. The packaging will be a full size semi truck trailer with an optional full cover garage to store them in, since not a one will ever actually get played.

What, no mention of Shaka Killer?

Where can I 'pre-buy' those Girly Girly box sets?
I know they're gonna sell out really fast!

David Rodigan & Lloyd Coxsone - Ebony & Ivory (adapted) 7 inch picture disc.

Bet Rodigan has or at least invites Coxsone on his show soon. Seriously. Would be an interesting show.

I actually heard Island is releasing a "Bob Marley - The Bathroom Sessions"

According to Island:
"It was discovered that there was a microphone left in Bob Marley's dressing room prior the Lyceum Ballroom show. Bob was having some stomach problems so he spent some time on the toilet while warming up his voice for the show. The entire set was caught on audio and was being held back by the Marley estate. For RSD 2018 it is going to be coming out on a toilet bowl shaped picture disc !!

Includes never before heard Bob Marley audition vocals and outakes. Includes "No hot sauce no cry", "Buffalo wing soldier", and the seminal "That wasn't ital"

Strictly limited edition of 800,000
