Reel Up Rock Steady

Reel Up Reel Up!
More golden rocksteady hits
Tracks date from the 1966-68 heyday apart from a few later deejay versions on Treasure Isle by U-Roy, Dennis Alcapone & Lizzy (1969-72)
Wake the town and tell the people...





Continuous mix 2 hours

Duke Reid's Treasure Isle leads the way production-wise, along with Coxsone Dodd's Studio One, Bunny Lee, Prince Buster, Gay Feet, Joe Gibbs' Amalgamated, Derrick Morgan's Hop, Derrick Harriott, Byron Lee (WIRL), Merritone and some early self-releases from the Wailers on the Wail N Soul M label.

A few real rarities like Yours Until Tomorrow credited to the Minstrels but actually the Martinies. Very crucial harmonica driven 45 on Rio by Winston Richards (aka Winston Grennan) called Don't Give Up/Studio Blitz. Also a Frank Brown & The Consumates 7'' The More They Get/Do It Now produced by Derrick Morgan.
