Artists who launched their careers there comprise an A-Z of the Jamaican music scene – Bob Marley and The Wailers, Burning Spear, Alton Ellis, Ken Boothe, Freddie McGregor, Marcia Griffiths, Horace Andy and many, many more. In the early releases featured here you will find the roots of Studio One’s unique sound – from the first jump-up, boogie-woogie and shuffle recordings made in Jamaica in the late 1950s, as the artists emulated their American rhythm and blues idols – Louis Jordan, Roscoe Gordon, Fats Domino – through to the early Rastafari rhythms of Count Ossie, the righteous Baptist beat of Toots and the Maytals up to the joyous excitement of Ska with tracks by Studio One’s young protégées Bob Marley and The Wailers and the all-mighty Skatalites. Clement ‘Sir Coxsone’ Dodd first began recording music in the late 1950s, making one-off records to play on his Downbeat Sound System. These ‘exclusive dup-plates’ enabled him to reign supreme in the regular dancehall soundclashes of Kingston, fighting off the competition from rivals including Duke Reid the Trojan and Prince Buster. This new album traces the roots of the legendary label as it created the sound of the young independent Jamaican nation going into the early 1960s. Sir Coxsone used only the finest musicians in Jamaica for these recordings, including those players that would later become known worldwide as the Skatalites, Don Drummond, Roland Alphonso, Ernest Ranglin, Rico Rodriguez, Cluett Johnson and others. As fans clamoured to get a copy of these ‘one-off’ exclusive records, Clement Dodd eventually decided to start making them available commercially starting in 1959, and so began the birth of an empire.\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cdiv data-bt-autogen\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eTracklist:\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003col\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eMr. Landlord - Basil Gabbidon\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eMilk Lane Hop - Clue J and His Blues Blasters\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eWigger Wee Shuffle - Derrick Morgan\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eStew Peas and Cornflakes - Aubrey Adams ; Rico Rodriguez\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eAnother Moses - the Mello-Cat Count Ossie ; His Warickers\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eWicked and Dreadful - Neville Esson\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eProof Rum - Clue J and His Blues Blasters\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eLeave Earth - Derrick Morgan\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eRhythm of the Blues - Lord Creator 1\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eHip Rub - the Jivin Juniors 1\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eLittle Joe - Lascelles Perkins 1\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eHeaven and Earth - Don Drummond ; Roland Alphonso 1\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eWalk All Over - Owen Gray 1\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003ePretty Baby - David Brown 1\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eHe Will Provide - the Maytals 1\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eWhale Bone - Lester Sterling and the City Slickers 1\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eSit Down Servant - Jackie Opel 1\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eBongo Tango - Roland Alphonso 1\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eGo Jimmy Go - Bob Marley and the Wailers 2\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eThe Slider - Clue J and His Blues Blasters\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ol\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e","brand":"503","offers":[{"title":"New","offer_id":50570869080360,"sku":"502632810296","price":22.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0933\/3833\/7576\/files\/2842023.jpg?v=1763988924","url":"https:\/\/waterloorecords.com\/products\/va-soul-jazz-studio-one-jump-up-cd-502632810296","provider":"Waterloo Records","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
