Songs Heard on the Radio # 11 Black Uhuru

 
 
From Anthem, which came out in 1984. I bought it. Held my first house party the same year. My copy of this was smeared liberally with yoghurt and was never played afterwards. During the course of the evening, vegetables were chucked in the washing machine, the cooking vinegar was drunk. An aerosol placed in the oven. It exploded when I was cooking my lunch the next day. The previous evening punks and skinheads had arrived at midnight and started trampling cigarette ends into the dining room carpet. The police were called and escorted everyone out. Happy days! Thirty years and counting.
