Legendary Manchester reggae reissue label Blood And Fire is being exhumed and brought back to life 20 years after its first release, with New York based reggae label VP Records. The label aims to release 10-12 Blood And Fire collections this year, with extras bundled in and new artwork. Blood And Fire founder (and Wire writer) Steve Barrow is overseeing all activities, the first of which will be a Record Store Day 12" release of Gregory Isaacs "Mr Know It All".

Ha ha - love the 'wire writer' bit !
Fortunately, the B&F / VP deal never happened [phew!]
Who knows what may happen in the future, but this one was going nowhere.
all the best
