Deeper-than-Spinoza, heavier-than-lead nyabinghi cut of Yabby You’s awesome Love Thy Neighbours (itself produced by Family Man, in 1974). You can’t touch Tubby’s dub on the original Defenders 7”... but both versions here are uncompromisingly dread, and essential in their own right.

Mesmeric, spare, funky, forward-looking dubs led by the Soul Syndicate drummer.

Tremendous, previously-unreleased takes of ska instrumentals by the Soul Brothers.
Rolando Al luxuriating in jazz; a Tommy McCook cha cha cha.

Excellent, sombre version of The Temptations’ civil rights smash.
Same tune both sides.

Laid-back rocksteady soul from Noel, out of the Chosen Few — coupled with a fun Ike Bennett organ workout.

Bumping rocksteady — with a gospel, Toots flavour to the A; a little more booting rhythm and blues to the flip.

1966 rocksteady, elegantly heartfelt as Nat King Cole.
