Bit of a mixed bag this week-some Lovers, Dub & some Toastin’- mostly twelves from the mid/late 70’s & early 80’s. (In the late 70’s I used to go to Petticoat lane, in East London to buy my reggae 12” -the stall was either covered, or part of an indoor market? although a friend of mine seems to remember it might’ve been set up on the ground floor of a car park? who knows?)
