Ruts DC Rhythm Collision Vol.1 CD
The Ruts were a reggae-influenced British punk rock band, notable for the 1979 Top 10 hit Babylons Burning, and an earlier single In a Rut, which was not a hit but was much played and highly regarded by the UK BBC Radio 1 disc jockey, John Peel. After meeting at the Deeply Vale Free Festival, The Ruts were formed on 18 August 1977, the band consisted of Malcolm Owen (vocals), Paul Fox (guitar), John Segs (sometimes Seggs) Jennings (bass) and Dave Ruffy (drums). As part of the Misty in Roots People Unite collective based in Southall, west London, the band were active in anti-racist causes and played a number of benefits for Rock Against Racism.
Originally released in 1982 and long unavailable, Rhythm Collision Vol.1 was an acclaimed collaboration with renowned dub producer Mad Professor. Now this seminal album is available once more and featuring three bonus tracks!
