Little Axe
Bought For A Dollar
Little Axe, aka Skip McDonald, started his career in music back in the Seventies as a member of the Sugarhill Gang backing band (already with longtime collaborators Doug Wimbish and Keith LeBlanc). Later on the same musicians got involved with Adrian Sherwood and his much beloved progressive Reggae/Dub label On-U-SOUNDS. So far McDonald has released a total of 8 albums of his own under the Little Axe moniker. Each of them recorded together with Adrian Sherwood, and each of them based around Little Axes very own and contemporary version of the Blues, combining Blues with Dub, Cajun and Gospel sounds. For the first time, and strictly limited to 500 each, Echo Beach offer you the vinyl version of this album Little Axe released on Peter Gabriels Realworld label in the early years of our century.
