Perfectly irresistible, bumptious girl-pop from Judy Mowatt’s group.

Deadly, hip-hop-inflected, soundboy version of Skylarking. Nasty bass.

Ace, rampaging digi.

Two fine sides of expert, Curtis-inflected soul-reggae.

A mystical roots gem by the vocal group More Relation, founded in New York in 1977. They were one short on the day of the recording, so they renamed themselves for this release only.
Stripped-back, ecstatic, and hypnotic, in the manner of bare-bones Upsetters, by way of Bullwackies. The singing is bathed in the light of Bob Marley and the I Threes. The dub is casually killer. We could listen to it for hours.

Twenty-three Errol T dubs of Joe Gibbs hits released between 1980 and 82, at the start of the dancehall era.

Very early Glads, from 1967, seemingly pre-Albert Griffiths — and a killer Tommy McCook instrumental. Both previously unreleased Duke Reid productions, when Trojan was properly trojan; by way of Japan.

Sweet rocksteady — expertly arranged, with boss guitar, horns and harmonies.
“We’re going to put it on… we are loaded… (long pause)... with soul music.”
