BATTLE FOR SEATTLE

Reggae and Grunge - two different musical styles, two different genres that influenced millions.

Little Roy and Nirvana - who would have thought the musical styles of these artist can be made into one effective sounding album.

Last May of this year, Little Roy collaborated with Prince Fatty and Mutant Hi-Fi to record Sliver and Dive, two of Nirvana's early works. Early this month, an album of Nirvana songs was released called "Battle for Seattle".

I regularly tune in to BBC Radio 6, thru the wonders of internet radio. DJ Steve Lamaqc introduced and played "Polly" that night, I was really surprised and excited because I never thought a reggae version was possible and for it to sound good at the same time. The arrangement, the clarity of the recording, everything is right. Everyone behind this project had got it right. This album is an instant classic in my opinion.

The first batch of this album were burned together with other albums and archives when the London riots happened. The Warner Bros.? warehouse were incinerated by the rioters. Those dumb c*nts!

Well anyway, enjoy this album. Play this loud!
