Search - Reggae Chartbusters :: Reggae Chartbusters Vol. 6

2009 release, the sixth volume in this recently reactivated popular Reggae series from the Trojan label. The series is brought to a close with a score of best-selling tracks from the latter part of the seventies. The transitional nature of this fascinating period in Reggae's history is reflected in the variety of styles highlighted, from hard-hitting Roots to the romantically-themed Lovers Rock, courtesy of many of the biggest names from each respective genre. As with the other newly created volumes, the clever design perfectly captures the feel of the era, while the accompanying notes and imagery ensure the high quality of the packaging matches that of the music itself. Launched by Trojan late in 1969, the Reggae Chartbusters album series swiftly became one of the best-selling lines in the company's catalogue. Following the simple, but effective formula of highlighting a dozen of the biggest Reggae hits of the preceding months, the LPs provided a showcase for both Trojan and the new style from Jamaica. 20 tracks. Sanctuary.
