Various - " Rare Reggae Grooves From Studio One "

True Reggae fans this ya one is unmisseble !!! In the mid late seventies in Jamaica, it became pouplar to extend each song by adding na instrumental reprise at the end of the vocal version, which ensured that if was a Hit, it would keep the dancefloor filled for much more time. Many of the songs on this release on Heartbeat / CRS label have been originally released in the late sixties and re-released in their extended version tem years later. "Cuss Cuss" for Lloyd Robinson is a powerfull rhythm that will never die, Peter Broggs have recorded only one song for Studio One here it is included, The Gaylads have recorded 86 songs for Coxsonne "Love Me With All Your Heart" have been released in 1967, The Silvertones will be remmembered forever by songs like "true Confession", "Smile", etc, "Take A Little Love" is my favourite song on the CD, no words just listen it, Ken Boothe no needs introduction "Moving Away", "Artibella" speaks for himself, "Come Running Back" have been originally released in 1966, The Martinis were unknown for me, have recorded only 4 songs in 1966 for Studio One, "My Baby" is one of those, Arthur Robinson is better known as Bunny and Scully fame, "Moments" is a great tune, Winston Francis, everyone knows him for his Classic "Mr. Fix It" "Going To Zion" have been originally released on 10’’ in the early 80’s and it makes appearance here on a CD for the first time.
