Still Jammin' On The Moon(s)

My shortlist for yesterday's Justin Robertson mixtape ran to 26 tracks, enough for two 86-minute Dubhed selections, so why keep you waiting?

More of an even split between the 20th and 21st centuries, there are some classic remixes of Finitribe and Stereo MC's, a rare B-side from Justin's late 90s alias Gentleman Thief, a deep cut from Lionrock's hugely underrated second album, plenty from The Deadstock 33s and collaborations with Dot Allison, Michael Rother, Nadine Sutherland, Ernie Ranglin and Brix Smith.

More nourishing than a Sunday roast, well, spiritually at least... enjoy the feast!

All That's Written Is Not So

Sixty-two minutes of Horace Andy for your listening pleasure, proof if needed that I don't need a birth, marriage or untimely passing to celebrate a great artist.

Horace Keith Hinds turned 74 in February and is as vital as ever, not least a stunning live performance with Massive Attack at last year's ACT 1.5 event in Bristol and a brace of Adrian Sherwood-produced albums, Midnight Rockets and Midnight Scorchers.

It was Massive Attack's Blue Lines album that was my proper introduction to Horace Andy's music, and I've been trying to keep pace since, with his extensive back catalogue and prolific contemporary recordings.

This 14-song can't hope to be comprehensive, and leans heavily on collaborations from this century, though it easily demonstrates how consistently brilliant Horace has been throughout his career and why he's considered a giant in the genre.

1) Control Yourself (Single Version By Horace Hinds): Horace Andy (1978)

2) Careful (Album Version By Adrian Sherwood): Horace Andy (2022)

3) Money Money (Remix By Tad A. Dawkins & Sylvan Morris): Horace Andy (1980)

6) Babylon You Lose: Horace Andy & Ashley Beedle (2008)

7) Airbag (Cover of Radiohead): Easy Star All-Stars ft. Horace Andy (2006)

8) If I (Album Version By Horace Hinds & Everton Da Silva): Horace Andy (1977)

9) Papa Was A Rolling Stone (Album Version By Mad Professor) (Cover of The Temptations): Horace Andy (1997)

10) Girl I Love You (Album Version): Massive Attack ft. Horace Andy (2010)

11) Fly High (Album Version By Howie B.): Two Culture Clash ft. Howie B. & Horace Andy (2004)
