VARIOUS Fly Flying Ska (Rare 1964 UK first press 12-track mono LP on a rough dark blue & silver Blue Beat label, Prince Buster's marvellous second studio album, though more a compilation of his production work at this point. Features many Jamaican Ska legends, including The Skatalites ['Perhaps', later used by the BBC], Toots & The Maytals [the hard-hitting 'Ska War'], Don Drummond ['The Burial'], Millie Small, Roland Alphonso & more. One of our favourite vocal numbers on this is 'The Greatest', where the mighty Prince goes one better than Cassius Clay & announces himself as the double-greatest! The front laminated flipback picture sleeve [VG+] reveals some natural age wear scuffing & a few faint laminate creases. There is a small name penned on the rear panel at the top, with no seam splits & all text clearly legible. The vinyl is clean & grades VG+/EX- with some faint paper hairlines & mild axial wear, with no jumps or sticks & superb sound on a mono playback setting - there is the occasional light background noise in the quiet sections as expected, & these original Blue Beat UK pressings are now so tough to find in serviceable condition. This is a superb find, one we've never seen before & comes recommended! BBLP803)
