This is Bim Skala Bim's first album from 1986. It is currently out of print and was quite difficult for me to find.
If anybody from the band or BiB Records wants me to remove this post please let me know and I will do so immediately. No threats of lawyers required. 1 The Key

DOWNLOAD
Physical copies may be out of print, but all the Bim albums are available via downloading services (iTunes, emusic, etc). And they have to have been fairly recently updated, since they are available as high bit rate DRM free downloads on iTunes, which means they've been actively managing their music there in the past 18 months).
ReplyDeleteThanks for that, I only had this on audio cassette before. I was lucky to see them when I was in Washington DC 10 years ago. Sadly I don't think they've gigged over the past 5 years
ReplyDeleteI used to have the album cover sticker on my 'record player', I seen then in '88 or '89 in Glasgow and they were awesome.......
ReplyDeleteI was just thinking about Bim Skala Bim the other day. Thanks for this!
ReplyDeletethis was also available on Roddy Moreno's SKA records label in the UK at the end of the 80s. Thats where I have the vinyl, but still can't locate a physical CD, so thanks for this
ReplyDeleteLast time I saw 'em was in 2002, summer.
