For those of you suffering from Reggae withdrawal, I hope this helps, it's mainly classic Skinhead Reggae sounds, with a couple of Rocksteady and Ska tracks included to mix things up a little. One interesting track is the steel drum version of The Slickers tune "Nana" which come from an acetate, I'm afraid my recording is very quiet so you'll have to turn it up considerably but it's well worth hearing and has never been included on a compilation or a reissue as far as I know. The rest - mainly my old favourites plus some really good rarer items from 1968-69.
