back in stock on double vinyl. coxsone dodd and studio one's connection to rastafarianism had begun long before the arrival of 'roots music' as a distinct genre that arrived at the very tail end of the 1960s. by the start of the 1960's coxsone dodd was making his way to count ossie's wareika hills rastafarian compound to hear rastafarian drummers play whilst the skatalites' front-line horns - tommy mccook, don drummond, johnny moore would jam alongside. this is the third in the series of rastafarian inspired music from studio one, and features classic foundation artists alongside some seriously rare tracks from the label. with the involvement of the crack studio house bands - be it the sound dimension, the soul defenders or the brentford road all-stars - as well as clement dodd and studio one's seriously high quality control, these tracks are all a healthy addition to the pantheon of roots music at studio one.
