Higsons – Run Me Down (The Complete 2-Tone Recordings) LP

The Higsons – Run Me Down (The Complete 2-Tone Recordings)

500 copies on black vinyl in a sleeve unique to the release for RSD 2023.

Originally released by Jerry Dammers' 2Tone label in the second wave of signings in 1982/3, The Higsons fitted with the political nature of the label but were integral to Dammers' new vision of having something other than "new wave of ska" acts on the roster. Run Me Down came out in the spring of 1983 so RSD 2023 marks the 40th anniversary of the release. The Higsons front-man, Switch (now better known by his real name, Charlie Higson) has made a new cover for this compilation to mark the anniversary edition of this compilation of Higsons 2Tone releases.
