Wire Charts 07 - reissues and comps

Well-known member
I thought the Wire charts for Comps and Reissues this year was a bit short - compare the number of titles they listed for 2006 with those for last year. Maybe, a longer list wouldn`t have looked as nice on the page. Anyway, can people add a few more to the list for 2007. For me these two categories are probably the most interesting part of the whole chart feature in the yearly round up.

Thanks!

apologies if you don't like reggae ;)

comps off the top of my head:

carlton patterson & king tubby- 'black & white in dub' (hotpot)

bim sherman- 'tribulation' (pressure sounds)

v/a- 'studio one kings' (soul jazz)

prince jazzbo- 'replay version' (basic replay)*


re-issue:

fatman presents- 'prince jammys vs crucial bunny dub contest' (auralux)**

the heartbeat studio 1 re-issues- can't go wrong w/any of them really

revolutionary sounds 7"s (feat. barrington levy, cultural roots, sam bramwell)


*i know john eden ain't too keen on the format (7"s w/ vocal & dub would be better), but i LOVED this when i heard it (not seen a physical copy to buy yet)


**i got a uk fatman press of this (diff title/cover etc) in about 1989 and it remains one of my favourite dub records.

Sandy Denny - Live At The BBC

the fairport convention 'bbc sessions' box set is ace too (i'd put it in place of the leige and leaf reissue, which made the wire's list, as l&l has been available on cd for ages and the extras don't equal the original)

The Roots Of Chicha: Psychedelic Cumbias From Peru


Chicha started out in the late 60’s, in the oil-boom cities of the Peruvian Amazon. Cumbias Amazonicas, as they were first known, were loosely inspired by Colombian cumbias but incorporated the distinctive pentatonic scales of Andean melodies, some Cuban guajiras, and the psychedelic sounds of surf guitars, wah-wah pedals, farfisa organs and moog synthesizers.
Chicha, which is named after a corn-based liquor favored by the Incas, quickly spread to Lima. It became the music of choice of the mostly indigenous new migrant population – mixing even further with rock, Andean folklore and Peruvian creole music.
Very much like Jamaican Ska or Congolese Soukous, Chicha is western-influenced indigenous music geared toward the new urban masses who wholly identified with the new hybrid . Chicha is at once raw and sophisticated - and until now, it had never been released outside of Peru.

Wire did review it, guess they didn't see fit to include it on their list.
 
Delia Darbyshire "Electrosonic" was my favourite reissue of last year.

I'm going to second Blackdown & Dusk - "The Blitz" from that Wire list- featuring the Queen Mum

Apologies, I forgot to thank people for their recommendations. I didn`t have an internet connection at that time, so it sort of slipped my mind. Anyway, lots of stuff for me to check. Thanks very much.
