Sometime Caught by the River contributor Kevin Pearce continues to singlehandedly (and single-mindedly) champion pop culture’s wild-hearted outsiders. A special edition of his online magazine Your Heart Out – titled Skimming Stones – is available to download for free here. After some revealing romps in the archives of The Pop Group and the Mad Professor’s Ariwa label it’s time to explore some related roots and branches. So, if you’ve got a passing interest in, for example, On-U Sound, Jah Wobble, Disco Dub Band, Dennis Bovell, lovers rock, afro rock, pub rock, The Fabulous Stains and Snatch, you’ll have a lot of fun exploring this particular pop tract.
