Reggae - Uusi

Isaacs, Gregory : Night nurse

Isaacs, Gregory : Maximum respect

A bona fide legend from the ghettos of western Kingston, Gregory Isaacs was a true reggae original whose voice is one of the greatest of the idiom. His ballads made him a favourite with the ladies, but Gregory addressed social issues with equal conviction, and tales of rude boy life were sung firsthand. 'Maximum Respect' is a digital killer from the early 1990s, cut for the pioneering sound system owner Count Shelley, the durable rhythms provided by Steelie and Clevie and the Firehouse Crew. With love ballads, reality tunes and songs praising the dancehall, Gregory covers all the bases and more. This is a must for all true Gregory fans!SIDE 1:1. Maximum Respect2. Promise To Be True3. Murder In The Dancehall4. The First One To Start5. In The Heart Of The CitySIDE 2:1. Me Nah Leggo2. Brother Don't Give Up3. No One Is To Blame4. She Is Not My Kind5. My Heart Is Bleeding

Isaacs, Gregory : Slum in dub

A highly rated 1978 dub/reggae album from the great Gregory Isaacs, reissued on 180 gram red vinyl.

Isaacs, Gregory : Work up a sweat

Isaacs, Gregory : New dance

One of the most popular and high profile of Jamaican reggae vocalists, Gregory Isaacs was a rough diamond who clawed his way out of the harsh western Kingston ghetto with an instantly recognisable voice that was wonderfully emotive, expressing both his toughness and determination for betterment, as well as the bleeding heart of a vulnerable lover. 'New Dance' is one of the excellent mid-1990s dancehall albums expertly produced by Anthony Dehaney, alias Bunny Gemini, working as usual with the Firehouse Crew, this time with Fatman Thompson of King Tubby's studio at the mixing desk and guitarist Lascelles Beckford of the Gifted Roots band as special guest. As usual, Gregory rides the rhythms with considerable aplomb, feeling completely natural atop the hard-edged rhythms and tackling a range of topics along the way. Much of the album deals with love lost, love gained, and love deferred; 'Say A Special Prayer' revamps the evergreen 'Send Me The Pillow That You Dream On' and 'New Dance' salutes the allure of dancehall music in the open air. This is one of Mr Isaacs' better offerings from the mid-1990s, worth getting to know if you're not already familiar with it, and a must-have if you've worn out your original copy.SIDE 1:1. Nobody Knows2. Say A Special Prayer3. For A Matter Of Time4. New Dance5. Don't Distress6. Lovely LadySIDE 2:1. Too Late Gonna Be Your Cry2. It's All In The Game3. Who Have Eyes4. Temperamental Lover5. Too Late To Cry6. Looking For A Love

Israel Vibration : Why You So Craven

Jah Batta : Argument

Jah Stitch : Dread inna jamdown

Jah Thomas : Dance hall connection

Deejay Jah Thomas was one of the creative figures making a dramatic impact on the Kingston sound system scene of the late 1970s and early 1980s, the rhythms he laid at Channel One studio with the Roots Radics helping to steer reggae towards the emerging dancehall style. Voicing and mixing his work at King Tubby's studio, typically with the young upstart engineer known as Scientist, Thomas got his start as a quick-witted deejay in the vibrant sound system scene of western Kingston, making his recording debut in 1976 with 'Midnight Rock,' a hit that became the name of his record label, once he shifted to producing his own work. 'Dance Hall Connection,' which first surfaced in 1983, is easily one of his best LPs, Thomas ably riding the rough Radics rhythms with style. The title track is a variant of the 'Boneman Connection' theme that references dancehall's grounding in sound system culture, 'Friday Night Jamboree' salutes the music's potent allure on a top cut of the 'Entertainment' rhythm, and 'Let Him In' implores the gateman to allow an impoverished dreadlocks into the dance; 'Nigger Skank' warns against wrongdoers, 'Joker Smoker' pokes fun at those who can't handle their herb, and 'Living In Jamaica' describes various aspects of lifestyle on the island. Elsewhere, Thomas enters boasting territory on 'Cool Profile,' disses combative women on 'Jealous,' recounts his girlfriend's dubious antics on 'Gal A Laugh' and implores another not to forget him once she emigrates. Flash it, Jah Thomas! This is musical murder!

Jah Thomas : Dub of dubs

Nkrumah "Jah" Thomas hails from Kingston in Jamaica and was a DJ and producer who came to fame in the 1970s, during the gene's heyday. He set up his own labels Midnight Rock and Nura and this dub album catches him at the peak of his powers. There is plenty of air and room in each of these tracks, meaning you get drawn right in and left to marvel at the horns, the glistening bells and the rich, endless echo. It's one for the head as much as anything else and provides endless hours of smoking soundtrack material.

Johnson, Anthony : Togetherness

Dynamic dancehall singer Anthony Johnson began his career in the mid-1970s, cutting a few sides for Channel One before he joined the group Mystic I who cut some great work for Lee Perry and Linval Thompson before disbanding, leading to the hit material Johnson cut for Jah Thomas as a solo singer. 'Togetherness' dates from 1993, when Johnson was long based in London, but his singing kills remained on par as in his heyday, the album a mix of ballads, pop adaptations and songs of dancehall appeal, the soave production values and one-off vocal style making it popular in Brazil and other territories. A lost gem, ripe for rediscovery!SIDE 1:1. She's Faced The Hardest Time2. Just To Be Close To You3. Original Roll Call4. External Fire5. GoodbyeSIDE 2:1. Suspicious Minds2. Sweet Inspiration3. If I Follow My Heart (Medley)4. Togetherness5. Swinging My Love (Medley)

Judge Dread : Rude boy

Pressed on RED MARBLE VINYL is a prime collection of hits and favourites from the legendary British reggae/ska artist, and the first white artist to have a reggae hit in Jamaica, Judge Dread! Expect vintage 1981 studio recordings including the most notorious songs from the Judge's epic career such as 'Big Six', 'Up With The Cock', 'Big Seven' and his fantastic covers of Serge Gainsbourg's hit "Je T'aime (Moi Non Plus)' and the classic 'Rudy, A Message To You'!

Kalbata : Vanrock

Fortuna boss Kalbata joins forces with five-piece band Tigris, creating a mesmerizing percussion-led album inspired by African and Caribbean traditions. Repetitive guitars, blissful synthesizers, and roaring voodoo drums set the tone across this extra-trippy, six-track journey. Techno and Balearic undertones remind us of Kalbata's wide musical spectrum, ranging from very dark to luminous tropical sunlight.

Keith & Tex : Freedom

Following their critically acclaimed 2017 album 'Same Old Story,' produced by talented and versatile producer-musician Roberto Sanchez, with all instruments played by Sanchez and Sanchez's studio band The Lone Ark Riddim Force, at Sanchez's A-Lone Ark Muzik Studio in Cuerto, Spain, 'Freedom' follows the same successful formula; again produced by Sanchez, the album combines sweet, soulful, melodic harmonies, and mature lyrics with the masterclass musicianship of Sanchez and his band, stunningly recreating the authentic sound Jamaican music studios produced in the 1960s and '70s. As with any productive collaboration, their additional experience together and time spent complementing each other has only sharpened the final product. Moreover, Keith & Tex are only getting better with age, making 'Freedom' shine like perhaps no other album yet in Keith & Tex's extensive discography.

Keith & Tex : Redux

Born in the rocksteady era, Keith & Tex made their mark with a slew of hits and classics that have lasted over 50 years. From their haunting rendition of 'Hypnotic Eyes' to the iconic guitar intro and solo of Lynn Taitt on 'Stop That Train', the listener has been treated to a unique style that still lives on after five decades.
