Prior to its release in 1971 there had never been an attempt to present a comprehensive anthology of the island’s musical development, with vintage ska, rock steady and reggae widely regarded as obsolete and of precious little merit. The treble disc set, which became an instant best-seller, had been the brainchild of Trojan’s label manager and Black Music fan, Rob Bell, who, assisted by Trojan stalwarts, Dandy Livingstone, Webster Shrowder, Des Bryan and Joe Sinclair, produced arguably the most significant Jamaican music retrospectives of all time. Now, 50 years following its original release, this hugely influential album has been revisited by Bell, along with reggae musician, Rusty Zinn, who have succeeded in improving what was already an almost perfect collection. Presented in the original eye-catching artwork, the set is further enhanced by a highly illustrated 50-page booklet in which Bell and Zinn relate the stories behind the release life at Trojan in the 60’s and early 70’s and the 50 tracks featured on the compilation.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cdiv data-bt-autogen\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eTracklist:\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003col\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eInvitation To Jamaica - Lord Tanamo\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eFat Man - Derrick Morgan\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eTell Me Darling - Jackie Edwards\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eRunning Around - Owen Gray\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eMiss Jamaica - Jimmy Cliff\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eHousewife's Choice - Derrick And Patsy\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eGive Me All Your Love - The Continentals\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eDarling Patricia - Owen Gray\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eRough And Tough - Stranger Cole\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eMan To Man - Kentrick Patrick\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eUno-Dos-Tres - Stranger ; Ken\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eSlow Boat - Al T.
