More Info:
When funk music exploded onto the global pop scene in the late '60s, many of Jamaica's leading music-makers were inspired to incorporate elements of the exciting sound into their work. The result was the fascinating and compelling funky reggae style that proved immensely popular with record buyers on both sides of the Atlantic throughout the early '70s. Pioneers of the sound included such celebrated producers as Lee "Scratch" Perry and Lloyd Charmers, whose recordings are heavily represented on this irresistible collection. Collected here are some of the finest examples of the funky reggae, performed by some of reggae music's most accomplished artists, from Ken Boothe and Lee Perry's Upsetters to British-based acts, Greyhound and The Marvels. CD Digipak, 3-panel sleeve.
