Hey Paul.. it’s a Jam packed session in a tiny space, would have been good to have an audience, because it should be seen, will let you know the how the project develops.
thanks

it is taking place in a studio in west london, but come to think of it, it should be a live event

cheers Eric for the vivid reminder of the golden age i know exactly what tape your’re talking about.
Levi, Asher, Smiley, with the mans chatting on that amazing version of “the answer” with Bunny lie lie
singing I don’t want to change your mind, i don’t want to stop from loving you, my all time favorite dub
from Saxon Studio, Daddy Kernal said that dub got destroyed at a venue, where the water dripped down
from the roof on to the asetate.
Here is an attempt at the Gee Wizz lyrics
R.I.P Smiley Culture
Gee wIzz jah tell me what kind of times are these.
Ingland so cold all mi feel ah ice breeze
More time seh it come een like it’s below nought degreese.
Mi ave fi tek caution wit mi cyar put in anti freeze.
Mi nuh wah wake up in di marnin try fi start it and it seize
man make money, honeys made by the beez
(can’t remember the rest, think it went something like..)
What mashing up di country pure venerial desease
now satan have a new one and it name herpes
you can get it from close contact or by kissing with ease
but gee wizz jah tell me what kind of times are these.

Superb… brings back memories. I was never a lyricist, but in my teens I thought I could pick up a mic. In reality, I was rubbish….but one thing I’ll always remember, was a period in my life, when I thought Smiley Culture was by far the best MC that we had in this country. He invented more styles and had lyrics to burn more than anyone else of his generation… but most people at school, saw it different… the names that they banded around was Levi (without a doubt), Champian (or Champion), Tipper Irie, Rusty, Daddy Willie and Sandy (don’t mention Daddy Freddy in this, even I was better than him). There are two tapes that I had, which featured just Asher, Smiley and Levi on Saxon, I still treasure them.. Smiley Culture (R.I.P) took it to another level.. check out Lyrics Grandad and G Whizz..different class. Willie Major – unsung hero too
