nice 'n' Screechy (does it, does it every time)
1992
1984
1976
Or is it Jim Squeachy?
Or even Jim Squashy?!
Never registered - or maybe knew once and forgot - that "Walk & Skank" = "On A Ragga Tip"
There was a promo video for SL2, I remember it faintly - black and white, hyper-hyper figures scuttling around, doing rave stage-dancer type moves ... Not on YouTube seemingly
Ah, here it is (cheers Eli Bee in Comments) - not black and white though (distortion of memory)
Did Mr Screech do anything else as superfine as "Walk & Skank"?
Love the YouTube write up on this - "from the double-LP-length digikal reggae opus "March Of The Gremlins" by Naram filled with gritty minor-key riddims designed to wreak havoc on the cogs of the Babylon system"
Better than the LP itself judging by this track anyway....
Ooh, vibey
Simon, you're losing it, the SL2 video is the first hit on Google!

It is indeed entirely made up of silly 90s rave dancing.
