AL CAPONE - GUS RAUCOUS (RARE VINYL 45 )
Loading...
Uploaded by GUGUG on Jun 2, 2011
This is a cover of one of my fave ska-tunes (originally by Prince Buster and The All-Stars), also a nod to all those record collectors out there who kindly upload their rare 45s for our listening pleasure. Well here's a slice of vinyl, so rare that it doesn't actually exist.
I recently bought a tenor saxophone from a man in the street in Glasgow. Its a bit knackered and I can hardly play it, but am trying. This tune is probably a bit beyond me, but what the hey!
Thanks to the Chris and the customers at "Play It Again Records" - a second-hand record store in Glasgow. http://www.yelp.co.uk/biz/play-it-again-records-glasgow
Gus plays all instruments: sax, drums, bass, percussion - and there's a bit of ukulele in there too!
Original version: PRINCE BUSTER AND THE ALL-STARS

Awesome stuff!

I got spotify recently and eagerly searched for this song only to find that all the versions there were absolute crap. Good thing you posted your cover!
-
Back in the 70's I ordered the Prince Buster version from a small independent record shop (there were loads back then), and had to wait a month for it to be imported . . . . . . . . it was well worth the wait!!!!! I still have it.

you're spoiling us ;-)

@RamonesKaraoke...Lol, I was wonderijg that. In the end I reckon its a real 45 with GUS's photoshopped label, with the recording on another more current media, used for the vid soundtrack. Well GUS what is it?

Worth waiting for!

I have loved reggae and Ska from an early age and onwards...
What a fantastic record collection store...i could easily loose the time in there!
You guys did a marvelous job with Prince Buster...and pressed onto a real 45..
