Tackhead Power sums this band up

DubDance

Have to agree with Dooz, they are still ahead of their time in many respects, they've been in many other incarnations since these tracks were recorded. It's weird hearing Thatcher's rants in the sample again, it's been some while since I heard these tracks at home, I have the vinyl versions, but no working deck for too long. Adrian Sherwood, Skip MacDonald, Keith Leblanc, Doug Wimbush et al, laid the foundations for much of what's current now in the dub spectrum of music. It may be loud and hard, but some of what's released 20 years on by others has links to this.

Still Far Ahead Their Time

Dooz

This compilation has long since been out of print on disc and it's a joy to see it here! Let's hope eMusic gets the other two volumes. Please be aware however that it is not solely Tackhead proper; they are songs from the wide range of their bands/projects. --- The track listing is incomplete; so for purists and others I've listed it here: 1. Tackhead - Ticking Time Bomb / 2. Tackhead - Stealing (Original Version, Featuring - Bim Sherman) / 3. Fats Comet - My One And Only One / 4. Tackhead & Gary Clail - Hard Left / 5. Tackhead - Original Sex (Featuring - Melle Mel) / 6. Fats Comet - Stormy Weather / 7. Fats Comet - Bop Bop / 8. Tackhead - Bastard Son Of Fats (5:25) / 9. Fats Comet - Rochester / 10. Tackhead - What's My Mission Now? (Parts 1 & 2)
