Version Galore is a song written and recorded by U-Roy and it is also the name of a reggae soundsystem run by Governor Andy (who's real name is Anders Sjosteen) and Daddy Stuffe (who's real name is Christofer Fridh). Version Galore was founded in the summer of 1997. Version Galore's selection is mainly roots reggae and rocksteady tunes.Version Galore did it's first party at the Lollipop festival that same year. The first line-up for Version Galore include the following selectors, Sir Fatso, Bruce LeeNus, Generator and Daddy Stuffe and the dj Governor Andy plus the band Serious Version feat. Governor Andy. The party at the Lollipop festival went really well, to say the least. During the autumn of 1997 we ran Version Galore as a weekly club. After two months at the bar Tuben (Stockholm), the bar Rangus Tangus approached us and asked us if we would like to stage Version Galore at their premises once a month. During the spring and summer of 1998 we have been playing at the Fusion festival (Stockholm, Sweden), the Hultsfred festival (Hultsfred, Sweden), Storsjoyran (Ostersund, Sweden) and the Fanclub festival (Stockholm, Sweden). Right now we are looking for a place to stage our club at and hopefully we will soon find a place. |
