057 Bigmikeydread Reggae Radio - Blind Blake (Blake Alphonso Higgs) Special I've wanted to do this for a while, Blind Blake, Bahamian Calypsonian (Some might say Goombayist, if it was a word!), hardly known to our world now, his strident voice and indomitable spirit comes through these 50 year old recordings as strongly as it must have rung out over the dining tables' of rich Americans visiting the island of Grand Bahama from the 1930s onwards. Little is known about this once popular Island entertainer, all that is left are memories and the recordings of the American Recording and Transcription Company, or ART records for short. I discovered him languishing in a bin of old records in a Charity shop, fell in love and then spent serious money collecting other Lps in the series! Typical! These tunes are offered to you alongside an informative, though somewhat stilted 'lecture' ;-) from yours truly, I really hope you like this stuff.... Regards, Mikey Tracklist - 01. Yes! Yes! Yes! 02. Pretty Boy 03. Love Alone 04. Never Interfere With Man and Wife 05. Conch Ain't Got No Bone 06. Foolish Frog 07. Hold 'Im Joe / Wheel and Turn / Jump In Line 08. Goombay Drum 09. Emmanuel Road 10. Run Joe 11. Curley Cay 12. De Pig an Goat 13. Goombay Rock 14. Loose Goat, Tie Goat 15.

055 Bigmikeydread Reggae Radio meet House of Reggae - Dally Inna Higglers Close Once in a lifetime comes an opportunity to witness a miracle, once in everyone's life there comes a moment that will define the rest of their life.... for some it was the Moon landing, for others it will be the jet planes that flew into the twin towers, but for no one, no one at all, will the defining moment be.... the day that Bigmikey and Rankin' Ian got together and produced this show,... even though it is a small work of genius, a nugget of determined effort, and an example to all of how not to prduce a slick and prfessional radio programme. BUT THEN WHO CARES... you know what to expect, we've all been here before, and for some reason you people LOVE IT! Here are some tracks that we play on the show.... Blind Blake - Delia Gone / Derrick Morgan - Mow Sen Wah / The Silvertones - Raindrops / Slim Smith and the Techniques - Telling Lies / The Silvertones - It's Real / Delroy Wilson - Till I Die (Just Like A River) / Delroy Wilson - This life Makes Me Wonder / Tinga Stewart and Clint Eastwood - Dry Up Your Tears / Nicodemus - Tubby's Daddy / Josey Wales - Bobo Dread / Carl Meeks - Haul and Pull Up Selector / Clint Eastwood - Primo Ballareena / Black diciples and Jack Ruby - Free Rhodesia / Shenley and Lunan - Something Is On My Mind / B.B.
