"Dennis Brown was the people's choice, Jamaica's most popular singer, for over twenty-five years. It is next to impossible to put into words his standing within the world of reggae where he was adored by the public and emulated by other singers in equal measure. This release features a faultless selection of tunes from his all-conquering years with Niney The Observer augmented by two classic tracks from 1972, Black Magic Woman and Let Love In, for Phil Pratt. Listen to, and enjoy, the music of one of Jamaica's greatest ever artists."

CD version. "Burning Sounds presents a brand-new album from Omar Perry. This is a must-have for reggae fans and music lovers alike! The album, Channelling Lee 'Scratch' Perry, is a tribute from Scratch's son, Omar Perry, to his father. 'Scratch' was, beyond question, a genuine genius responsible for creating some of the greatest, most complex, and thought-provoking music to ever come out of Jamaica -- or anywhere else. His importance to the furtherance of Jamaican music as a producer, arranger, writer, and artist is beyond compare and he played an integral role in, and was the inspiration for, many of the key movements in the development of reggae throughout the '60s and '70s. Omar Perry is an accomplished performer in his own right with an impressive track record and Channelling Lee Scratch Perry leaves the listener in no doubt as to where Omar and Olivier Gangloff, the producer of Scratch's final studio album Heaven are coming from. And every bit as importantly, they demonstrate where they are going -- it's not nostalgia but an intelligent use of the past to create music for the future."

"Yellowman, also known as King Yellowman, is a Jamaican reggae and dancehall DJ known for his distinctive voice and catchy lyrics. He rose to prominence in the 1980s and became one of the most popular dancehall artists of that era. Yellowman's style often incorporates elements of humor, boastfulness, and social commentary. Born Winston Foster in 1956 in Kingston, Jamaica, Yellowman faced challenges from a young age due to being an albino, but he overcame these obstacles to become a highly successful musician. He gained attention for his 'toasting' style, which involves rhythmic chanting over reggae and dancehall beats. Some of Yellowman's most famous songs include 'Zungguzungguguzungguzeng,' 'Nobody Move, Nobody Get Hurt,' and 'Mr. Chin.' His music often addresses social issues as well as themes of love, partying, and his own experiences. Yellowman's impact on dancehall music and Jamaican culture is significant, and he remains an influential figure in the genre to this day. This iconic 180-gram yellow vinyl, including sleeve notes released on Burning Sounds, captures Yellowman in combination with his sparring partner Vernon Rainford, better known as Fathead, and captures Yellowman at the height of his powers. This re-issue of Divorced! (For Your Eyes Only) is released on 180-gram limited edition yellow vinyl, and includes an insert with comprehensive sleeve notes."

"1979 reggae album reissued on red vinyl. Amongst devotees' of 1970s conscious music the name of Linval Thompson is revered as a singer of several classics of the genre including 'Cool Down Your Temper' and 'Don't Cut Off Your Dread Locks.' From the 1980s onwards, while never forgetting his roots, Linval established a second career as one of the first, and most important, record producers of the brave new dance hall style. Although his reputation as a record producer has, on occasion, eclipsed Linval's many achievements as a singer, his superb self-produced albums for Burning Sounds are not only a timely reminder of the cultural roots and vocal talent of Linval Thompson but also serve as an indication of the direction that Jamaican music would eventually take during the following decade. This re-issue of I Love Jah is released on 180-gram limited edition red vinyl. Includes comprehensive sleeve notes."

"In 1975 Phil Pratt first recording session with Keith Poppin at Channel One on Maxfield Avenue generated a spare, hypnotic re-working of 'Bad Mind Grudgeful' retitled 'Envious.' The seven inch single, 'caused a sensation here and in Britain,' was a Number One record in Jamaica and a big hit on the UK reggae market too. The acclaimed Envious album followed. Keith Poppin continued to work with Phil Pratt on releases such as Who Are You, another big hit, and two years later, recorded his second album for Phil Pratt Pop Inn. This classic collection, also created with a stellar line up of musicians at Channel One, was released in the UK only on the Burning Sounds subsidiary label Burning Rockers and consolidated Keith's reputation as one of Jamaica's foremost vocalists with his soulful and melodic voice. First time on CD."

"One Love by Mike Brooks was originally issued in 1983. Most of the tracks on that album were voiced at King Tubby's and over rhythms again recorded at Channel One, where the Roots Radics had replaced the Revolutionaries as the Hookims' house band. 'Sensie Man,' sung in defense of his fellow ganja smokers from around the island, was the lead single. 'Lovers Street' was a big seller too whilst 'Grooving' was an adaptation of the Wailers' 'Keep On Moving' that according to Brooks, even won approval from Bob Marley himself, who'd recorded the original for Lee Perry. Mike's old friend from Arrows, deejay Crutches, also cut a version of that track for Teams, but it was the singer's own version, delivered in his best falsetto, that got most airplay. Love Is Lovely was another standout with its joyous message and dazzling interplay between organ, sax and drums. Channel One's new set of musicians had made quite a difference, and their slower, heavier rhythms were more suited to the times."

"Purpleman, also known as Purple Man or Peter Yellow, was a Jamaican dancehall deejay who emerged in the 1980s. He was known for his unique vocal style, energetic performances, and colorful stage presence. Purpleman was closely associated with the sound system scene in Jamaica and gained popularity with his lively performances at dances and parties. His stage name, Purpleman, likely came from his distinctive skin condition, which caused his skin to appear purple under certain lighting conditions. Purpleman's lyrics often touched on themes such as social commentary, partying, and boastfulness, typical of the dancehall genre. Some of Purpleman's notable songs include 'Feeling Irie,' 'Sandra Lee Buy Big House Fi Me,' and 'King On The Way.' Purpleman's contributions to dancehall music are remembered, and he remains respected for his impact on the genre. This album, when released in 1983, was originally credited as Yellowman. Purpleman was the true artist on this album. Here it is now, with the correct artist credit to Purpleman. The album is pressed on 180-gram vinyl, including sleeve notes."

"Niney The Observer's Sledgehammer Dub In The Street Of Jamaica LP has always been considered a long lost gem with dub collectors. Originally released in early 1977 and pressed in a limited quantity of between 300 to 400 copies the record was a compilation of dubs devoid of vocals but high on rhythms -- mixed with feeling and showcasing the talents of both musicians and mixing engineers. King Tubby's involvement is clear, as is that of all the other parties involved such as Niney, The Soul Syndicate, and The Cimarrons to name but a few. The actual LP title was derived from how King Tubby mixed his tracks. Niney described the sound coming from the speakers as like having a sledgehammer hitting you on your head. Niney himself is steeped in reggae history, making songs for the likes of Lee Perry, Bunny Lee, Joe Gibbs, and Coxsone, producing the masterful Blood And Fire cut and being one of the first to experiment with sound in early reggae. Sledgehammer Dub In The Street Of Jamaica was pressed on Niney's own Observer label without a jacket and has become something of a holy grail for collectors of dub."
