More of the Tackhead pick. The last several days have been one On-U Sound family pick. Not that they have been all On-U, they haven't been. But related, yes. Skip McDonald, or Little Axe, as he sometimes goes by, has definitely been associated with the whole cabal. Started with them in Sugarhill Gang, did a bunch of associated rap bands and songs. I include a couple. He also played with a ton of other bands as the studio go to guy. I only included a few. I didn't include Sinead O'Connor or Donna Summer or tons more. Search for him, though. He's played with a lot of people. He doesn't have much solo stuff under his own name. Mostly on the On-U compilations. The rest is under Little Axe. I love the Lee Perry, Little Annie and the Barmy Army. Some of the tracks on the previous days posts also include Skip, so check them out. Very incestuous. They all appear on each other's stuff. Sometimes uncredited or with made up names.
