Africa Showcase

Thought I'd post another compilation - this time I've done it showcase-style with each vocal followed by its dub so you can really get into the rhythm. Searching for label scans of these ones really made me wish I'd hung on to them for a few years longer - you wouldn't credit what some of them sell for now!

All these records date from the end of the seventies to the start of the eighties which was an interesting time in Jamaican music, with rhythms and production styles in a flux. Although it was the age of the discomix I've tried to stick with 7" singles simply out of personal preference ('Don't Mash Up Creation' is the exception - way too good to leave out).

Sorry about the sound quality of 'Bottom Of The Well' by the way - it was a download, but again, way too good to leave out.

Anyway, hope you enjoy
