Various - Duke Reid Golden Hits LP
SKU: TBL1015
Description:
Originally released by Treasure Isle in Jamaica and Trojan Records
in the UK in 1969, Duke Reid Golden Hits highlights a dozen of the
legendary Jamaican producers biggest hits of the rock steady era.
Although all of the tracks were already oldies by the time the LP
saw issue, such was their timeless appeal that the collection
became an instant best-seller.
Almost half a century on, the recordings are still widely
considered classics of the rock steady sound, yet despite the
significance of the collection, this seminal album has remained out
of print for decades. With its re-release, fans can finally acquire
a brand new copy once more and at a price well within the budget of
most. Mastered from the original Trojan tapes and pressed on the
highest quality vinyl, the album is lovingly presented in a sleeve
that faithfully replicates the original artwork, so maintaining the
authentic sound and look of the 1969 pressing.
Duke Reid Rock Steady is a must for both connoisseurs of vintage
Jamaican sounds and those casual listeners wanting to hear some of
the greatest Jamaican recordings of all time on the format for
which they were created.
