Gorkys Zygotic Mynci. Knew they existed years ago, never realised just how good they were.

I remember the late John Peel chatting and championed them years back.

The Beta Band for me. Hadn't really paid them any attention until I bought a best of album after they had split.

Until I met Mrs P my entire idea of reggae was based on UB40, and I hated it. She however, is a massive fan and has slowly but surely indoctrinated me over the last 16 years.

UB40 are rubbish so no surprise you didn't like it.

Other way round with me, really enjoyed Highway to Hell, and the albums late 70s early 80s but very rarely play any of their stuff now.

This - commercial reggae.

Prince Buster; Jnr Walker & the All stars; Desmond Dekker etc - different class.

Not really passed me by but revisiting the Blues. Some great stuff on Don Odells Legends on YouTube.

Good shout.

Just found this guitarist, he'd completely passed me by


Also if you don't know them, I recently discovered Boo Boo Davis & JB Hutto, both worth a listen if you're into Blues.

Charles Aznavour
Never appreciated what a great songwriter he is until about four years ago. "She" was in the charts when I was a kid but at that age it wasn't my thing. Then years later I heard it and realised what a fantastic song it is so I decided to research his back catalogue. Well worth a visit. Really poignant and poetic lyrically as is the tradition with many French songwriters

100% agree with you in relation to anything made after Present Arms and Signing Off. Their best years were from 79 to 82. UB44 was the first sign of worry, Labour of Love was the first nail in the coffin, the rest is a sad history.

Same here, I think the name put me off. Saw them live and was totally hooked.
