There is going to be a 4CD box set from Burning Sounds, called *Burning Up!*, out on October 21: http://www.amazon.co.uk/Burning-Up-Vari ... B01LF6MV04

Also out on the same date, three Perry produced albums reissued on vinyl from Trojan: http://www.amazon.co.uk/Beat-Babylon-VI ... B01LRFMIYC / http://www.amazon.co.uk/Hurt-Good-VINYL ... B01LRFMIWE / http://www.amazon.co.uk/Revolution-VINY ... B01LRFMIWY

I have also heard on the grapevine that VP are going to reissue Keith Hudson's *Pick a Dub*, with 8 bonus tracks (vocal cuts of the dubs), the date is December 2.

Hmm, Disc 1 of the box set looks very interesting for the Blackstones tracks, hopefully this means BS will be reissuing their whole album!!!! The remaining tracks seem to be taken from their recent reissues - Michael Prophet , Morwells , Jimmy Riley etc
I only know the Chanters track as a Burning Rockers 12"

Wonder how the track Al Campbell - Don't Divide The People is connected??

Disc 2 The DJ's - has a few tracks from their recent reissues King Sighta, Dillinger/Trinity...hopefully the other tunes by Prince Mohammed mean that BS will reissue his African People - Burning Rockers label LP in it's entirety . The rest of these tracks are from the BS comp 'The Magnificent 7" produced by Phil Pratt.

Disc 3 - Dubs - I think all these are from BS recent dub album reissues?


Disc 4 seems to have a few from the Burning Up samplers/compilations that came out on Burning Sounds label .
The Gene Rondo, Alton Ellis tracks are from Burning Sounds comp 'Loving Feeling' https://www.discogs.com/Various-Loving- ... se/6255707

Cheers
for the tips 99th

I have gone for the Gladiators set, mainly to finely get Naturality on CD.
The Rico is tempting!

Out of the Caroline batch I'll be getting The Gladiators *The Virgin Collection* (to get *Naturality* on CD) and Rico *Man From Wareika / Wareika Dub* (I missed out on the recent Japan reissues that went out of print immediately), and I might get the Millie Small too (seems to be very comprehensive, not totally my cup of tea, but for the historical value).

For the VP batch I have all the main albums already, but I will probably still get the CDs for at least *Pick A Dub* and maybe *King David's Melody* for the bonus tracks. If *Lamb's Bread* comes out on CD too with bonus tracks that would surely be interesing as well, but otherwise I have the tracks on the Blood & Fire.

I am a CD guy when it comes to reissues (only do old pressings on vinyl), so I would like to see that one on CD as well, don't know if there is any chance for that, I'm not familar with the label. I have the album on a Jet Set CD (with it's dub counterpart), but I presume this would be a sound upgrade.
