CHANT DOWN BABYLON with Jesse I
106.7 PBS-FM > Melbourne, Australia
Saturday 29 December 2007

The annual "best of" show, where I run through the best singles of the year...
While this is pretty subjective, it does take into account feedback from the
local dancehalls, and sales at the Higher Level Record Shack. As usual I
haven't included more that one tune on a particular riddim, so some big tunes
won't appear where edged out by another.
