Morning all!

I recently bought a 12" by this band called 'Roar Oh Lion' on Vinyl Supply. To my understanding, this is quite rare to come by and aside from this release I have never even heard of this group.

Does anybody have any info about this group? When they formed? Where do they hail from? Did they release anything else?

I have made it my quest in the last couple of months to find as much rare UK roots as possible. Black Symbol, Matumbi etc...

If anybody would like to here the record, I will have it on youtube by the weekend. It's a real killer! (www.youtube.com/buckbumble)

Thanks for your help!
