Bleep

Soul Jazz Records plunges deep into the archives once again for another investigatory compilation; this time focusing on the ska output in the downbeat period of Sir Coxsone Dodd’s legendary Studio One Records. Inclusions range between the years 1962 and 1965 showcasing the earliest roots of the ska movement, featuring the upbeat ‘Climb The Ladder’ from Bob Marley & The Wailers, Lee Perry’s gritty rarity ‘Gumma’ and the more downbeat ‘Live Good’ from The Ethiopians. Complimented by extensive liner notes, information on the artists and deluxe packaging, this is another collection of priceless musical history from the Soul Jazz Records camp.
