BOB MARLEY & THE WAILERS – IRON LION ZION ‘Iron Lion Zion’ is a bangin’ track that was originally recorded in 1973 by Bob with original Wailers Peter Tosh and Bunny Wailer.
The track remained unissued until 1992 when it was remixed with additional musicians and the I-Threes on backing vocals. ‘Smile Jamaica’ is a nice an’ easy skankin’ tune written by Bob and Lee ‘Scratch’ Perry in 1976.

ASWAD – DON’T TURN AROUND Aswad were a Jamaican/UK band playing some fine soulful roots reggae in the fertile late 70’s early 80’s UK reggae scene. By the late 80’s the band was mining the fertile Lovers Rock sound and had a big hit with this catchy stone-cold classic.

Original 1988 NZ pressing on Island/Festival Cat # K 521 Grading (cover/vinyl): EX- / VG+ In limited edition picture sleeve.

SHAGGY – OH CAROLINA/LOVE ME UP Shaggy’s 90’s cover of The Folkes Brothers 60’s Jamaican folk song brought the classic sound to a new generation.

With a clanking beat overlaid with Peter Gunn guitar samples and a moody sax under Shaggy’s gruff vocals, it really hit the spot.
