Llans Thelwell & His Celestials - Jive Samba |
|
|
|
7inch Vinyl : On Sale!Product Number: DSR-RN7-02
The Cannonball Adderley’s famous Jazz classic beautifully covered into Afro Caribbean Jazz masterpiece. This precious piece digs into depth of the Jamaican music to show unique side of the history. Due to their regular appearances in hotels at Montego Bay, it is reasonable to understand that the band had a range of repertoire other than Ska. The MC's hype heard right after the riff interprets the excitement of the session and creates a great atmosphere. Matching the original release, backed with a prime Jamaican Soul by talented Busty Brown who later recorded with Lee Perry.

Llans Thelwell & His Celestials - Golden Horns |
|
|
|
7inch Vinyl : On Sale!Product Number: DSR-RN7-03
The Celestials trademarked imminent sound can be heard in this elegiac killer Ska instrumental!! The bang on titled ‘Golden Horns’ representing the music itself. If they were ever based in Kingston, they may have had more opportunities for recordings which might have changed the history of Ska music. Such a great band indeed. Although it’s still quite a tune, it may sound a little monotonous on the flip side, showing Thelwell’s personal affection for Carlos Malcolm’s band.

The Blues Busters - I Won't Let You Go |
|
|
|
7inch Vinyl : On Sale!Product Number: DSR-RN7-04
The big hit Ska classic everybody loves, sang by one of the top groups of the 60’s!!
Along with the Maytals and the Wailers, the Blues Busters were one of the top groups at the time, however commercially they were going more of a mainstream than the others.
Since their career goes way back in the late 50’s, they must have been idolized by so many of those who made their debut later in the Ska era.
This is an essential mainstream Ska classic by the brilliantly skilled duo in their best form backed by no other than Byron Lee.

7inch Vinyl : On Sale!Product Number: DSR-RN7-05
Another smash hit Ska masterpiece by the Blues Busters, the superstar duo who had been dominating the Jamaican pop music industry since the 50’s!!
Covering the American hits as their specialty, the popular group had left a number of Jamaican souls, although only a few ska hits.
Out of those few, this is undoubtedly another one of the most considerable tunes they had left. An excellent singing melody sparkles on top of the Byron Lee’s iconic softly touched bass line.

|

|
7inch Vinyl : On Sale!Product Number: DSR-RN7-06
A magnificent Rocksteady piece in one-off style sang by one of the groups that represent the golden age of Ska.
Since the number of their recordings decreased devastatingly after the Ska era, this truly is a rare Rocksteady made in its top form with the veteran’s dignity.
In addition, this is the own Rocksteady cover version of one of their first ever recordings at the Coxsone’s in 1960.
