09 Summertime In England Van Morrison Live at Montreux 1980 (1)

This one is a MASSIVE exclusive. If there's one album that's turned heads in the Boiler Room office more than any other this year, it's Sherwood at the Controls Vol. 1 1979-1984. The way Adrian Sherwood's visionary production finds common ground between post-punk (Shriekback, The Fall, The Slits), avant-funk and heavy reggae - with such advanced technique that he makes everything sound like a million dollars, and strangely futuristic despite being over three decades old. This unreleased track by bona fide Jamaican legend  Prince Far I  just proves the point.

Out on Friday 6 April. Preorder link: http://tinyurl.com/pdrql42
