Duke Reid Golden Hits - LP

Various: Duke Reid Golden Hits version on vinyl LP in Standard edition. This particular edition was published in United Kingdom in publishing company Trojan Records on 19. August 2016.

Collected on this album are the greatest hits of the Duke Reid era at Rocksteady. Pressed on 180g vinyl and mastered from the original master tapes, this rarity is now available again on vinyl after several decades. Duke Reid has been producing ska and rocksteady in Jamaica since the 1960s. His recording studio was the first port of call for this sound, and the Trojan label (on which this compilation is released) is named after Duke Reid's sound system truck. Duke Reid loved American jazz and blues and let that passion permeate his work. To this day, his output is considered far more sophisticated than that of his competitors. This compilation contains many rarities, as well as world hits like "The Tide Is High" by the Paragons.

Album spans genres Reggae and Rocksteady. Mono Vinyl.
