Johnny Moore (as Lloyd’s All Stars) – Love Kiss Blue (Matador Blank 1969)
Lovely instrumental version of the 1968 Hamlins’ tune “I Don’t Care at All.” The UK issue of the Johnny Moore version is on Doctor Bird. The flip is the same on both the UK and Jamaican issues — a DJ version of The Uniques “Secretly.”

The End of an Era
After over two years, DJ Chris is stepping down as weekly selector and promotor of the Rocksteady Lounge. Chris and host Terry Lee created a Monday night spot with fantastic Jamaican music and a vibrant, regular crowd. There will be a special Rocksteady Lounge dance party on Monday, August 24th in the big room (with wooden dance floor!) to bid Chris farewell and wish him good luck as he immerses himself in nursing school. The good news is that Terry Lee plans to continue Monday nights and will invite a variety of guest selectors each week. More details will follow for the dance party. Chris will be sorely missed behind the decks.
Here are some photos from the August 3rd Rocksteady Lounge, a night celebrating Viktor’s birthday…
Jackie Mittoo – Man Pon Spot (Coxsone CS 7046)
Today’s featured record is the instrumental flip-side of the glorious “Not for a Moment.” The 1968 Coxsone label ‘Man Pon Spot” differs from the song of the same name released on Bamboo in 1970, but both feature Jackie Mittoo on organ.
