Brand new selection of rare and classic releases made at Studio One
by reggae's leading women! Featuring legendary artists such as
Marcia Griffiths, Rita Marley and Hortense Ellis (with a guest
appearance by her brother Alton), alongside a host of rarities from
lesser known names such as Nina Soul, Nana Mclean, Denise
Darlington, Myrna Hague and also Doreen Schaeffer - vocalist and
founding member of The Skatalites!
Featured here are some notable cover versions - from Tyrone Davis’
soul classic 'Can I Change My Mind' to the Byrds' 60s psychedelic
anthemic 'Turn Turn Turn' in a rub-a-dub style!. Doreen Schaeffer
versions Alton Ellis’s seminal 'I’m Still in Love with You', Nina
Soul versions the slack rocksteady anthem 'Barb Wire'.
Many of these tracks are almost impossible to find and many have
never been issued ever since their initial release. The music on
the album is - of course - 100% killer and features backing from
all of the seminal groups at 13 Brentford Road including The
Skatalites, Sound Dimension, Soul Brothers and the Brentford All
Stars, and ranges from ska, rocksteady, roots, lovers and more from
the 60s, 70s and 80s.
All produced by Clement ‘Sir Coxsone’ Dodd at Studio One Records,
