Customer Reviews

Punks' Reggae man5
DJ Scratchy was a regular figure at Punk gigs in the late 70's. He was the DJ who introduced Reggae, Ska and Dub to the bondage trousered crowds at Clash gigs, tirelessly promoting the Jamaican sound. Here with this double CD he relaunched his career, and what a wonderful collection it is, with a mixture of old favourites and obscure gems. If you listen carefully, you can still feel the Punk vibe here and relive the whiff of stale beer and marijuana in the air of those grungy London clubs.

Memories!!5
Basically, this is a fantastic album if you ever went to see The Clash and heard the DJ playing amazing reggae and feeling the bass thump into your chest as you walked in.

Brilliant stuff, superb selections - a real treat!!

Great value time trip back to those years5
This CD went into the Mac laptop and the sounds burst into 2009 to take me back over 30 years. Great selection and worth buying for "On the Track" alone - play loud and lose yourself. Captures those years perfectly for anyone who was there and will introduce some new ears to a rich source of Jamaican music.
