First issue was published in 1982, last one in 1987. Unfortunately we ran out of funds, so we had to cease publishing. We thought they were all gone, but we found a few boxes with back issues. if anyone is interested in purchasing them. Supplies are limited. Also available is Beth's book on "King Jammy's", which chronicles the days in the 80's when Jammy's studio changed the face of popular reggae. After an initial run, this book is now out-of-print. Here is a link with more info: http://www.freewebs.com/kingjammy-thebook/ peace Dave ....roots-ee replied on rmr - dave, niceness...u may not remember me but i have all of the 8 issues...back in the day when so many sweetness with the print reggae magazines... thasx for all the hard work by beth and you, bless, one peace roots-ee http://thearkband.com 419-352-7143 rlam@bghost.net [2] *=*=*=*=*=*=*= *=*=*=*=*=*=*= *=*=*=*=*=*=*= >From: Wadi Gad (R.A.W. #) Subject: New R.A.W.
