Synopsis

Album Description

This collection captures a unique and experimental creative period when Jamaica's musical output was both embracing the influence of pop music from abroad and nurturing the homegrown musical creations that would become reggae. These winning songs and their instantly recognizable hooks have influenced generations of reggae fans and musicians and are a joy to experience again and again. VP RECORDS.

CD Reviews

From Bam Bam to Cherry Oh!

(5 out of 5 stars)

"If You Like, early Desmond Dekker, and Toots And The Maytals, this is a great record. My two year old son's favorite song is "Boom Shaka Lakka". You just wish there were more songs on this CD. If you like Jimmy Cliff's "The harder they come" you'll love this."
