The first 7" release coming soon on Selection Train 7". I was over the moon to be able to work with one of the musical heroes who built the Studio 1 sound - the Motown of Jamaica. 
 Vin Gordon took over Trombone duties from the Legendary Don Drummond when he was commited to Bellevue Asylum and held the post through the glory years of Rocksteady, Reggae and Roots.
 Red Blood was originally cut by Vin for Coxsone at Studio One in around 1971, and only surfaced on a stupidly rare UK "FAB" Blank labelled 7" of which there were only rumoured to be 100 pressed. the rhythm is more well known from it's incarnation as "Bionic Dub" on the Studio 1 LP of the same name, and was recut by Augustus Pablo in around '78 for Hugh Mundell's "Little Short Man". 
 The 1st Trombone piece was a haunting, moody, minor-key ride through Vin's genius, and his new improvisations on the theme for this re-cut capture the same ghostly quality, while the new rhythm is both sinister and bubbling, lending some nice weight  to the proceedings. 
 Watch out for the 7" coming in September, and raucous dubplate cuts already being played by a handful of soundsystems. >>>FORWARD>>>
