Paul Gorman is…

Your Last Chance…Front Line II

Incredible footage here from 1977 doc Roots Rock Reggae of producer “Prince” Tony Robinson (working at either Joe Gibbs or Harry J, reggaenuts will tell me) as well as scenes shot at a JA pressing plant and the legendary Randy’s Records (“You Name It We Have It”).

Highlight for me: The Gladiators laying down the vocals for Jah Works, stand-out track on their album Proverbial Reggae.

I first came across the song on the same year’s great budget comp Your Last Chance…The Front Line II, which sports this uncompromising Jamie Reid/Cooke Key artwork:

//Front, Your Last Chance...The Front Line II, Various artists, Front Line/Virgin, 1978.//

//Back, Your Last Chance....//
