I'm trying to put together a 2 Tone ska collection & am looking for anything/everything I can by these two early 2 Tone bands...I'm sure they didn't even make full length albums, just singles for the label...

Anyone?

Cheers,

Put The Funk Back Into Punk (Parts I & II) - The Higsons

What Higsons stuff are you after?

They've had two CD compilations and Charlie Higson became popular on The Fast Show. The last one, "It's A Wonderful Life" is a compilation of their BBC sessions and although available to buy, doesn't have the vital tracks for which they are better known.

Their best tracks were "Conspiracy" and "I Don't Want To Live With Monkeys". I can put them up later if you want.

-Tear the Whole Thing Down
-Run Me Down
-Ylang Ylang

-Feelings Gone

-Give It Up

Cheers!
