Analogue Bye Bye *5
I’m Valencia bound to the Benicassim festival for a dose of sun stroke, alcohol poisoning, and hopefully fine music.
Normal service may resume on my return, but first another crusty old edition of Coldcut’s Solid Steel radio show.
Back roughly 15 years for the classic Junior Reid sampling “Blood Vibes” from the Masters At Work, some shameless self publicity with Ninjatune’s Raggadelic Roots, and an old school Reggae ending courtesy of Marley, The Wailing Souls and Aswad. Crammed in between, a Coldcut R&S megamix, and a bit of lefty politics, “Privatise The Air” from Gary Clail and the Barmy Army, that’s as relevant in Gordon’s Britain as it was back in 1992.
Wailing Souls – “Mr Fire Core Man” (MP3)
Gary Clail & Barmy Army – “Privatise The Air” (MP3)
Human Resource – “Dominator” (MP3)
Coldcut – “Solid Steel ??/01/92” (Tape 5) ( (MP3) – running time 1min 29″

Hey there, the Solid Steel show gets broadcast here in NZ and there has been one that stuck in my mind from earlier in the year. It had loads of chopped up snippets and inserts from tv shows and movies etc, muppets, bat man etc. I was wodering if you had it?? Or could point me in the right direction. I tried emailing them but they didn’t respond.
Any help would be appreciated.
Josh – Im not sure about that show, but it sounds like a strictly Kev kind of thing. I’d suggest going to the ninjatune site, then asking a question on the forum. Its packed with Solid Steel geeks who will probably know loads more than me.
hey MLD just stumbled across your website. Vintage solid steel is pure gold. Thanks, you rawwwwwk.
thanks James – Hopefully I’ll be posting loads more soon. Got boxes of them to digitise, just got to find the time
