JONES, VIVIAN	Bank Robbery	LP	ROOTS VIBRATION	ROOTS 030LP
$29.00 LOW STOCK LEVEL Roots Vibration present a reissue of Vivian Jones's debut album Bank Robbery, released in 1983 and backed by Undivided Roots. Heavy slow sparse rhythms (in a Roots Radics style) and floating keyboards. Superb roots by this inspired UK singer, including the well-known tunes "Flash It And Gwan" and "Third World Man". Born in Jamaica but raised in the UK, Vivian Jones is an important voice in the UK roots scene. Started in the '70s as deejay on local sound systems but also as a member of several UK roots bands. Disillusioned with the music industry he returned to Jamaica in 1982 and recorded some material. He returned to London, began recording again in his spare time and released his debut album Bank Robbery on Ruff Cut. He went on to work with Jah Shaka, Bobby Digital, Junior Reid, and many others. In the '90s he started his own Imperial House label. Vivian on the creation of the album: "At that time I never had a band to work with or anything so I spoke to Crucial Tony Phillips and he said I must come in. I went down to Ruff Cutt and they had some rhythms down there that they didn't know what to do with and I think they were even going to wipe some of them off the tape. They played me a few of them and I said, 'What? You gwaan wipe off this?? A me tek this!' so they say 'Alright, come voice it...' and the tune was 'Flash It And Gwaan'. When I heard that rhythm I said, 'Bwoy you mad???' and they said, 'we cyaan get nobody to sing 'pon this riddim' so I said, 'gimme the riddim'. And, in fact, before I sang it, when I heard the rhythm I went to a sound party. I went there and they gave me the mic and I started singing 'Flash It And Gwaan' right there and then . . . After 'Flash It And Gwaan' I sang about three more tunes that night and then they decided to make an album so they started giving me different rhythms and I kept voicing them until we had an album. That was the album Bank Robbery, because at the time the bank robbery was a real thing that happened on my birthday, 1st April, when they robbed some gold bullion or something like that."
