Ital Rockers (Leeds) vs Earth Rocker (Huddersfield) - vintage sound system clash entitled ''Lyrical showcase Gold Cup Dance'' - held @ Venn St. Centre, Huddersfield, UK on 30 Sep 1989..............
This is the most ARMSHOUSE vintage sound clash that I have seen on video !!!
This soundclash was compered by Megatone Sound from Manchester - with Beavi Dread from Megatone Sound having to take to the microphone to maintain some order - due to the fact that both the Ital Rockers & Earth Rocker sounds were interrupting and heckling each other while trying to do their segments. At one point the clash is interrupted again when some Rastas object to the 'slackness' (sexually explicit) lyrics from the MCs......
At the end of the clash as the result is announced - further chaos erupts as bottles are thrown towards the stage and cameraman ends the video !!!!!!
Two of the biggest DJs on this video have sadly passed away in recent years : Judge (RIP)from Ital Rockers Sound, Leeds & Rizla (RIP) from Earth Rocker Sound, Huddersfield - both DJs are pictured on the thumbnail photo for this video as a tribute.............
I first posted the links for this video on a website called 'Dancehall Reggae.com' over 10 years ago (under the name 'Saffron') - and am kicking myself for not releasing this video sooner on my channel !
BIG respect goes out to Mark Iration (from Iration Steppers) for the video ! (you can see a young version of Mark on this video as the Operator for Ital Rockers Sound - wearing a black leather baseball cap)..
BIG respect goes out to Guvna Gregah for editing & processing the video !
