The Gamblers conclude their opening trio of Boss Reggae singles to light up dancefloors worldwide with their final of three limited edition 7” offerings: “One More Time!” This new single follows on from “Tonight” & “Boom! Boom!,” which hit the streets in January and February, respectively. All three singles will be strictly limited to one-time pressings of 250 copies each!
Their latest 7" single for Pirates Press Records features "One More Time" on the A-side, and “You Keep Me Hangin’ On” on the B-side, the latter being a rough ’n ready cover of the all time classic Holland-Dozier-Holland Motown smash made famous by The Supremes!
The Gamblers are an old school reggae-influenced combo brought together by Mark - singer of long-running streetpunk legends Booze & Glory - as an outlet for his well-established love of Caribbean music. He has a great affection for old school genres like rocksteady, calypso, and the original Jamaican ska, but especially early Boss Reggae from the era beginning around 1968-69.
After a short-lived reggae project two decades ago, and more recently, the positively received Booze & Glory Reggae Sessions records - which re-imagined and re-arranged their streetpunk anthems with some assistance from Vespa & The Londonians, the inevitable conclusion was that Mark needed to form a full-time reggae band, and The Gamblers are that group of experienced and skilled musicians. This trio of singles is the first results of their time in the studio with producer Misiek.
Although Mark is the first to stress that this is not “pure” early reggae, what The Gamblers are is the sound of an exciting modern band playing with all inspiration, enthusiasm, love and respect for those classic boss sounds! Turn it up!
The "One More Time" single by The Gamblers is up for pre-order from Pirates Press Records on 7" Classic Black Vinyl big hole 45, and will be available everywhere March 28, 2025!
