JOSHUA TO JASHWHA (LP)
12 Inch
18.05.12
from the beginning of bristol archive records involvement in documenting bristols neglected reggae heritage we have wanted to release an album that showcases the great talent of one of the local reggae scenes mainstays, joshua moses.
unfortunately, joshua has no copies of the many recording sessions he has done in the years since his first session in 1978, and so it has taken more than eighteen months of painstaking research and the pursuit of numerous leads to gather together the fifteen tracks on >joshua to jashwha - 30 years in the wilderness<. the result is more than worth any effort involved on our part and is as strong a debut album as anyone could wish for, guaranteed to create a buzz among reggae fans worldwide.

THE BRISTOL REGGAE EXPLOSION 3 - THE 80S PART 2
12 Inch
27.03.12
nice price deal !!! the bristol reggae explosion is back with a third volume. whilst still happily exploring what was happening in the city during the 1980s, they have bent the rules and included a lone track from 1979. if anything, this third volume is their strongest so far, an amazing achievement when you consider that most of the tracks are previously unreleased.
by popular demand, >bristol reggae explosion volume 3 – the 1980s part ii< has a strong leaning towards the roots side of reggae.

bristol archive records are pleased to announce their first foray into the world of the reggae 12 inch single with a brace of releases from bristol reggae legend joshua moses, strictly limited to 800 copies worldwide.
the first is >africa (is our land)<, originally released in 1978 on the more cut label produced by dennis bovell it is now acknowledged as a classic slice of uk roots and on the rare occasions copies surface they regularly command over £100. we included the vocal side on >the bristol reggae explosion 1978-1983<, now following numerous requests we have decided to issue it in its original format along with the original dub mix.

our second 12 inch from joshua moses is >rise up<, another strong roots outing this time from 1983 that until its inclusion on bristol reggae explosion volume 2 had remained unissued and unknown to the reggae audience. judging from the feedback we have already received, >rise up< could become as popular as >africa (is our land)< and so we have chosen to release it along with the previously unreleased accompanying dub version on the format for which it was always intended.
