Continental Drift's Vol: #1 - Cultural Export (MROX Records)1997

A fine comp of UK underground /festival/squat bands that were prominent in the mid 90's, which really captures the musical diversity of the time with mostly exclusive forays into dubfunk/skat reggae/ska punk/ folk-punk/middle eastern techno and includes tracks by many bands who only got round to releasing the odd 7''/12'' at most. I was going to post this nugget awhile back but the Rythm-ites track skips half way thru, this is the best version i could get after ripping it several times. enjoy!

A thousand thankyou's... a camel and a lama and any excess gratitude I have'nt already parted with... for posting Continental Drifts Vol.1. You have no idea how many years I have been looking for this. Could'nt even buy the damn thing! I shall be singing 'We're all camel herders' for the next 6 months. At least the Mrs will finally believe me that the song exists! BRILLIANT and Thanks again, top fellow! :)
