Adults Only volume 2 – Another rude, dirty explicit 1992 reggae LP on Trojan

Description

“Rub and scratch your khaki, squeeze and love up with 18 Jamaican classics”

Welcome brothers and sisters, to another batch of gems to get you in that lovin’ mood.

Independent review from Allmusic.com:
“"What is catty," the backing singers ask U-Roy on the innuendo-laced "Big Boy & Teacher"; "The same as pussy cat, lying on the mat," he replies. Well that obviously explains why felines are running rampant over Adults Only!, Vol. 2. Stranger Cole has his "Pussy Cat"; Max Romeo doesn't have a feline of his own, so he wants to "Play With Your Pussy"; Lloydie & the Lowbites love theirs so much they exclaim "Yum Yum Pussy"; while the Soulmates attempt to put out the blaze after "Pussy Catch a Fire." The girls, meanwhile, seem to have their eyes on the chicken ruling the roost, as Owen & Leon explain on "Want Me Cock." And so Trojan excites listeners with another collection of rude reggae, raunchy rocksteady, and scandalizing ska classics and covers. Once again, there's an odd number out, "Rub up Push Up," which is no relation to the Termites' song that appeared on the first volume, where Justin Hinds & the Dominoes actually tell off their contrite girl for her lovey-dovey behavior. But when the Termites deliriously sing "Push It Up" and the Itals dulcetly intone "Push Push," it's in another context entirely. There's plenty of sweet singing as well from the likes of Max Romeo, Lloyd Charmers, and the Ethiopians, who beat down "Satan Gal" with great whip effects and fabulous harmonies, while the aforementioned Soulmates song boasts wailing fire sirens. Others numbers are so salaciously suggestive they stun on their own, notably Lloyd & Patsy's "Papa Do It Sweet," a cross between a back-alley "Je T'aime" and "Soldering," while Charlie Ace & Fay return with another heavy rhythm to accompany the DJ's heavy-handed seduction technique. And if the "Rough Rider" leaves you with a limp, "Doctor Dick" will put you right, just beware of the "Hole Under Crutches." For with the fabulous rhythms streaming behind the suggestive lyrics, you'll want to get up and dance, unless you'd prefer to have a bit of a lie-down.”

I use the 2006 Record Collector grading system:

MINT: The record itself is in brand new condition with no surface marks or deterioration in sound quality. The cover and any extra items such as the lyric sheet, booklet or poster are in perfect condition. Records advertised as Sealed or Unplayed should be Mint.

EXCELLENT: The record shows some signs of having been played, but there is very little lessening in sound quality. The cover and packaging might have slight wear and/or creasing.

VERY GOOD: The record has obviously been played many times, but displays no major deterioration in sound quality, despite noticeable surface marks and the occasional light scratch. Normal wear and tear on the cover or extra items, without any major defects, is acceptable.

GOOD: The record has been played so much that the sound quality has noticeably deteriorated, perhaps with some distortion and mild scratches. The cover and contents suffer from folding, scuffing of edges, spine splits, discoloration, etc.

FAIR: The record is still just playable but has not been cared for properly and displays considerable surface noise; it may even jump. The cover and contents will be torn, stained and/or defaced.

POOR: The record will not play properly due to scratches, bad surface noise, etc. The cover and contents will be badly damaged or partly missing.

BAD: The record is unplayable or might even be broken, and is only of use as a collection-filler.
