Roots-Dancehall Selections Vol. 1

Roots-Dancehall Selections Volume One (1976-84)

Revisiting one of my old mixes from 2007. Some excellent roots and roots-dancehall classics back2back, many in the extended 12'' discomix format. Vocals, deejay cuts & dubs. Productions from Junjo Lawes, Niney, Prince Jammy, Sly & Robbie, Jah Shaka and several others. Remix of the Tuff Gong's Roots Rock Reggae Dub and Shaka's earth-shattering dub version of Johnny Clarke's Babylon.
