4th & Broadway

 
4th & Broadway was a subsidiary of Island Records started in January 1984. 
 

 

Known as Fourth & Broadway in the UK until about 1987, they then switched to the more well-known 4th & B'way logo.

 

In 1995 4th & B'way released the third full-length by Tim Simenon's acid house/big beat Bomb the Bass.

On-U Sound posse Skip McDonald, Doug Wimbish, Keith LeBlanc, Bernard Fowler, & Bim Sherman join the fun along with Sinead O'Connor, Jah Wobble, & a cast of many others this time around. 

 

Bomb the Bass - Clear, 4th & B'way, 1995.

  3. Such an obscure classic - thank you... Any sign of Justin Warfield's solo debut?
