Well done internet

Morrissey (1979)

My friend Neil’s Auntie Susan just dug out these previously unseen photos of being out on the town with Morrissey. Fabulous. 1979. #Morrissey #MozArmy pic.twitter.com/mSqMbR0IsI

Searching

Sad news from @DexysOfficial this morning that Anthony O’Shaughnessy, the boy pictured on the cover of Searching For The Young Soul Rebels, has died. Here’s a 2010 news report featuring him and Kevin Rowland discussing the photo, which was taken in 1971https://t.co/60facGqq7H pic.twitter.com/lw9a4J6IyB

I was given an advance cassette of this back in the day. Sign o' the times indeed

Things are wrapping up in the On-U Sound Records studio! The long awaited Horace Andy album will be released in 2022 and is titled "Midnight Rocker". Just as "Rainford" was accompanied by "Heavy Rain", this new Horace Andy album will have a Dub follower as well, most likely named "Sleepy Dub Session". And if you can read between the (blue) lines you might get an idea of what is yet hidden behind the veil

Also on the line to be released around the same time is Pay It All Back vol.8! I will go into the details about this album later in another topic, but for what I have heard from it so far I am thrilled! But there is more!

The amazing new African Head Charge album is as good as finished and the new Tack>>Head is well on it's way as too! Peter Gabriel's Real World records will release the also (very) long awaited "Dub No Frontiers". Dub Syndicate ft. Ital Horns is also ready and waiting for a release date. New albums from Jeb Loy Nichols and Creation Rebel are still being worked on and for what I heard of it you won't be disappointed!

On the next Dub Distraction show (by yours truly) you can hear some of the to-be-released stuff already. That is Friday 29 October from 18:00 CET (17:00 UK time) https://radiopatapoe.nl/ Also keep on checking out the Monthly ON.U Sound Sunday Roast from David Asher who's shows always has sneak previews, unreleased rarities, odd mixes and more!

SOMETHING NICE IS GONNA HAPPEN TO YOUR EARS
