Well it's been a while, due to lack of internet access and a life I haven't been able to post. Now I'm back with some tracks from the LP Saxon Specials Volume 1 (to my knowledge Volume 2 was never released). 'Specials' are tracks made by artistes specially for a particular sound system (in this case London's Saxon sound system). The tracks are covers of an existing popular song with lyrics changed to praise the sound system and the crew. Sometimes people confuse 'specials' with 'dub plates' - the latter are in fact promo or pre-release vinyls, often white labelled, that sounds will play to try and outdo each other when in competition.
So there goes the science, now here come the tunes:
Saxon I Love You - Sanchez
Ladies' favourite Sanchez croons over a heavy bassline of his love for Saxon.
Stalk of Sensimenia - Michael Rose
Herbalist anthem Saxon style! Guaranteed to mash up the dance and encourage lighters in the air (pre-smoking ban).
Turn Off Dem Idiot Sound Deh - Cocoa Tea
A track well suited for a special, Cocoa Tea helps Saxon to eliminate the other tin pan sounds.
