Description
Prince Buster "Baby Face Nelson" b/w Derrick & Patsy "Please Don't Leave"
Killer ska instrumental with Buster toasting... 'Baby Face Nelson was sick when he met Al Capone!' (cue sound of machine-gun fire). This is some serious gangster ska on the original Jamaican blank pre-release, which I bought out of Buster's Record Shack in Kingston 20 years ago. I believe this title was never released in the UK, if you are a Prince Buster fan this is a must-have side. I wouldn't let it go but it is a spare copy. Conservatively graded a strong VG+, vinyl is still shiny with some superficial scuffs and marks but it plays great, you won't be disappointed. I will try to make some MP3s later this week, email me to hear a tune.
Check my overwhelmingly positive ebay feedback and be confident that this item is honestly represented. See my other auctions for more rare shots, ska, rocksteady and roots reggae.
