BIM SKALA BIM “Best of Bim Volume 1 – 1980s” LP – random color pressing (most are orange!)

Description

Bim Skala Bim’s “Boston Blue Beat” is a mix of upbeat 2 tone ska, alt-rock, calypso and reggae, the key to their signature sound is an unchanged line up since formation in 1983. In 2021, they treated fans to a brand new album entitled “SONIC TONIC”, proving once again why they were one of America’s premier bands who kickstarted ska’s third wave in the 1990s.

Over the years, original copies of their first few albums have become increasingly hard to find. To ensure that new vinyl fans have access to these stone cold classics, we embarked on a three volume “Best of Bim” series! The first volume was released for their European tour, covering songs from their first three albums (“Boston Bluebeat” / “Tuba City” / “How’s It Going”) all recorded in the 80s:

Side A: 1. Diggin’ A Hole 2. Bangin’ 3. Jah Laundramat 4. Hypocrite 5. Wise Up 6. The Key 7. Cool Nights 8. Solitary Confinement
Side B: 1. Chief Inspector 2. Good Dog Ska 3. Let Me In 4. Gopher Rodeo 5. Start Again 6. Blue 7. Silence 8. Veil of Sadness

The remainder of the pressing on random color vinyl has arrived! FYI: Subscription members can chose to get a copy in their last shipment of 2025!
