11 stunning tracks 7 previously unreleased in any format hot on the heels of the critically acclaimed 'the bristol reggae explosion 19781983' bristol archive records return to the city's rich reggae heritage with another album full of lost gems this time it's the criminally neglected talisman who benefit from a long overdue and well deserved release originally formed in 1977 as revelation rockers talisman were consummate performers not only vying with black roots for the title of bristol's number one reggae act but also one of the country's most popular live bands they toured the uk building up a loyal following and leaving memories of gigs that are still discussed to this day the band's prowess earned them support slots with acts as diverse as burning spear the clash and the rolling stones and they were more than capable of playing in such esteemed company now after nearly thirty years bristol archive records have lovingly compiled a cd of the band at their peak in 1981 not only does the cd contain the band's two original 7 Inch singles but also seven carefully selected live cuts from classic shows at glastonbury and bath university this is the first time on cd for this material and is also the first proper release of any kind for the live tracks
