A blistering collection of ska tunes from Clement 'Sir Coxsone'
Dodd's legendary Studio One Records, Jamaica's foundation label of
reggae music. Featuring classic cuts from the originators of
Ska - The Skatalites, The Wailers, Lee Perry - alongside a
heavy dose of superb rarities from the might vaults of 13 Brentford
Road - pure Ska Fever !
Soul Jazz Records new Studio One Ska Fever returns back to the
early 1960s - when Ska was the soundtrack to Jamaica's Independence
and Sir Coxsone ruled the land and The Skatalites and Studio One
were creating history on a daily basis with an endless stream of
blistering, scorching classic tunes.
This album includes an incredible line-up of only the finest
artists in reggae music, including Roland Alphonso, The Gaylads,
The Ethiopians, Don Drummond, Jackie Opel and many more. An
all-star cast from Studio One, as Chris Blackwell famously noted,
the 'University of Reggae'.
The accompanying booklet contains extensive sleeve-notes from
Studio One historian Rob Chapman (author of Never Grow Old and
Downbeat Special), with information on musicians, tracks, label
scans and more.
