Tappa Zukie - Living In The Ghetto

In conjunction with Hearwax, Rockers Radio and Schrikdraad... it is my pleasure to present another piece of the Tappa/Tapper Zukie discography. This album is called "Living In The Ghetto" and as you can clearly see from the gigantic word bubble on the sleeve it does in fact include the big hit "Oh Lord!"

Engineered by Jammy, mixed and voiced at King Tubby's, featuring Sly and Robbie on the essentials and released on the Stars label, I think you'll dig it!

In the next week I'm going to mix it up a little... gonna go more mid-80's with a feature w/shares from one of my all-time favorite DJ's Admiral Bailey and later we're going to go real old school with some Studio One ska courtesy of the Clarendonians... stay tuned!

Nico - thanks for the feedback! I don't know of anyplace where you can actually buy or trade CDR copies of OOP albums but the best place to start is by asking around on the blogs that specialize in reggae music - check out my blog links! I've found that if you're looking for something in particular, the contributors and posters to these blogs usually come up with what you need at alarmingly quick speeds!

Thanx for this one reggaexx, I don't think I've heard it before, so I am looking forward to listening to it at my desk tomorrow.
The man Zukie takin' over the airwaves!

nice nice!

Someday I gotta go thru and clean my iTunes library and decide whether I prefer "Tappa" or "Tapper". ID3 tags are terrible for genres like reggae where there are so many colaborations

Downpressor - I just transferred my entire Itunes library to an external harddrive and with the conflicting ID tags it is absolute mayhem! I feel your pain brother! :)
