I was just seeking out Los Libertadores on You Tube when I thought to look for Reggie Mental and found this:
I tripped over them at Fibbers in Lancaster on 3/4 (more band and roadies/groupies than audience). I was between matches (Accrington and Barrow) and watching the cricket and footie over a few beers. If you're in the Lancaster/Morecambe area, look out for them, they're a great laugh and the brass sound is magnificent live.
This has special significance for me. I'd totally forgotten about it until an ex from 27yrs ago recently hooked up with me on FB and asked me if I still liked it.
Sad to hear today that the Ska and Reggae legend Prince Buster has passed away. He was a truly great inspiration to the second wave ska bands we grew up loving. Little tribute to the big Cecil Bustamante Campbell.
