Superb Blood & Fire selection of scattered late-seventies outings, all in discomixes. Treasures include the opener, Reggae Rhythm, with its blaring horns, originally out on Trio International; the 12” mix of Pure Ranking by Jammy, at Tubby’s; and the deadly triumvirate of Everton Da Silva productions — Youths Of Today, Don’t Let Problems Get You Down and Mr. Bassie.

The dubs of the original Scientist LP, plus the corresponding vocal sides by Johnny Osbourne, Hugh Mundell and Wayne Jarrett.

The pioneering Arkestra bassist — that’s him playing arco on Rocket No. 9. in 1959 — leading his own 1975 session, evenly grooving and improvisatory, with great tunes. Check the Middle Eastern vibes of the opener.

A 1965 trio led by Ayler’s great bassist, with drummer Tom Price, and an early opportunity to hear the under-appreciated clarinettist Perry Robinson in full flight.
