WHAT A FIRE
Brentford All-Stars
Studio One 12"
Summer is out of control. Heatwaves grip the world. Things are getting crazy. Naked lost boys rampage naked through UK Tescos. Governor Schwarzenegger mobilizes popsicles. The sun crashes into Astoria. The heat makes people do crazy things. It makes crazy people do even crazier things. Mel Gibson hurling anti-semitic slurs at Malibu Sheriffs Deputy and Arch-Jewish Inquisitor James Mee? Standard Gibson family traffic stop. Much more unsettling is Mel using badly dated Lethal Weapon idiom, calling a female officer "Sugar Tits." The classy, clear thinking Mel I know would have, at worst, used the reverential Aramaic expression for "Sweat Breast": KHLiY B'EuOB'aA.

"What A Fire" is very a fine Jamaican jape by former Studio One house band the Brentford All-Stars.
"Summer Breeze" is a soulful cover from keyboard legend and Skatalites founder Jackie Mittoo.
"Morning Sun" comes from the stellar new Trojan/DJ Spooky compilation.
The torpid cover of "Summertime" is courtesy of B.B. Eaton, ex-Studio One crooner and former member of The Gaylads. Though I expect these days B.B. doesn't introduce himself to surly young jamaican rude boys as "One of the Gaylads."Labels: James
