Guanyin (Red Vinyl)
This album is a sequel to 2008’s Chinese Dub……
I thought it was time that I wored with the family again....my wife Zi-Lan , and sons John and Charlie, ( Tianqi and GZ Tian, respectively ). The last time we recorded together was on ‘Chinese Dub’, back in 2008 which sold very well and this could be seen as a sequel to Chinese Dub. On this album Zi-Lan plays Chinese Harp, flute and sings, John (Tianqi) my eldest boy plays drums and percussion, keys and Chinese dulcimer and Charlie (GZ TIan) , my younger son plays Chinese Violin and sings. Guanyin is the Great Female bodhisattva. ‘The Goddess of Mercy’. This album has a unique mix of Chinese and Western styles. I am back playing a Fender Precision , which is the type of bass that I first played , when I started playing in the 70’s. It’s a real ‘Hi-Fi’ record . I wanted this record to have high production standards.

Old Jewish East End of London Dub 12" Single (Blue Vinyl)
I grew up in Stepney , along with its neighboring ‘village’ Whitechapel, it was still, at that time, quite a Jewish (mainly Ashkenazim ), area. Most of the Orthodox Jews had gone to Stamford Hill and Golders Green by then. You could still clearly feel the echo of the Shtetl, especially around the many street markets. The influx of Jewish immigrants largely began in the late 1800’s You can easily imagine in the late 1800 early 1900 what the East End of London was like, in particular a big mix of Jews and Irish, (from Cork in particular). Both had fled to London through urgent necessity , the Jews because of pogroms in the East of Europe, the Irish, first due to the Famine, in the mid 1800’s, and from then onwards in the search for labour. One lot came from the East and the other lot from the West. Both parties arrived via The Thames, into the port of London. That mix of Jews , Irish and others made for a ‘heady brew’. A very heady brew indeed. I make this tune with huge affection in memory of those huddled masses

Dream World LP
'Dream World' features 9 tracks that are in part inspired by Frances Truffaut, the sights and sounds of London, Brighton, and Manchester and an unexpected visit the legendary bass player made to the Stepping Hill hospital in Stockport. This is an album that effortlessly brings together all the craft and expertise that is synonymous with a man that's enjoyed a musical career that spans over forty years. A stunning collection of mainly instrumental compositions, the tracks here encompass funk opening track "Chunk of Funk" is a sheer brilliant track to open the album with, the album moves through classical and jazz to reggae and an electronic sound that recalls the post punk sparseness of 'Metal Box'. Recorded over the last few months in his home studio, this is very much a solo recording, although Wobble does enlist the help of his Invaders of the Heart keyboard player George King on three tracks; 'L'autoroute Sans Fin', 'Havana' and 'Dream World'.
Side 1:- 1. A Chunk Of Funk / 2. Havana / 3. Cuban Dub / 4. Dream World
