valuable reissue of sir niney prod. classic reggae

edition of 200 copies, press on orange vinyl, hand numbered, black paper sleeve hand stamped

7 inch single such as the record itself (alcazar), the second single chaos takes its influence from the golden age boom-bap era of hip-hop, that is smooth as velvet and helps transmit its message of social critique, love and hope. woxows message has been perfectly delivered by 2 great rappers, akil the mc from jurassic 5 (who doesnt need introduction) and blurum13 (well known for his works with dj vadim), while on the other side the chorus sang by the legendary ken boothe from jamaica it sounds like the icing on the cake, topping the tune with his soulful voice and a work songs feeling.

new version of the track with jamaican legend ken boothe + dub version. ken everything i own boothe played a significant part in covering sir coxsones studio one walls with gold and goodness knows that label fostered its share of legends. collaborating with the master, blundetto could have laid it on thick with heavy production instead alongside his discreet partner blackjoy, he created a gorgeous production using the purest of jamaican music, proving yet again that time has nothing on the suave tones of mr. rocksteady.

the ken boothe masterpiece from 1978 gets the long overdue remastered re-issue. -got to get away- was produced by phil pratt, features additional deejay vocals by jah walton (aka joseph cotton) and has extensive sleeve notes. packaged in the original sleeve design by anthony nero it is now available for the first time on cd and the high collectable lp-vinyl is here in a great 180 gram edition with leaflet including credits and linernotes.

the jamaican sonia pottinger was once called “the most important jamaican woman involved in music business”. dancing down orange street is a collection of some of her famous productions for different artists. the album captures the moment when rocksteady transformed into reggae by speeding up a little and moving towards a more jerky and less smooth musical palette. famous singers as delano stewart and ken boothe are present on the album with multiple tracks. the vocal trio the melodians (known for their hit “rivers of babylon”) provide a couple of beautifull songs. even after all those years (released for the first time in 1969) the compilation remains a treasure of showcasing some of the finest songs produced by sonia. sonia pottinger was married to music producer lyndon pottinger and started to record musicians in 1996. during the late 60’s she produced songs for joe white, the melodians and toots & the maytals.

es war ein bewegender abend, der weit bis in die nacht hineinreichte, im ausverkauften hammersmith palais in london am 05. juni 1977. unter den 2.000 begeisterten zuschauern waren auch joe strummer und mick jones. beide waren von der show der jamaikanischen top-stars dermaßen inspiriert, dass der frühe single-hit von the clash -(white man) in hammersmith palais- daraus entstand. zur feier des 40-jährigen labeljubiläums präsentiert greensleeves die gleichnamige 4-track ep (33 rpm) in attraktivem packaging inklusive eines nachdrucks des posters, mit dem das konzert seinerzeit beworben wurde. hier finden sich die besten stücke von leroy smart und dillinger mit -ballistic affair- und -cokane in my brain-, sowie ken boothes unnachahmliche coverversion von sixto waiting for sugar man rodriguez und dem äußerst raren und gesuchten delroy wilson song -rascal man (false rasta)-.
