TWO OF TROJAN RECORDS’ MOST POPULAR ALBUMS FROM THE BOSS REGGAE ERA

BOTH ALBUMS RELEASED IN THEIR ENTIRETY ON CD FOR THE FIRST TIME EVER

INCLUDES MANY TRACKS NEW TO CD

Following its launch in the summer of 1968, Trojan Records swiftly became the dominant force on the UK’s West Indian music scene.

Over the years that immediately ensued, the company released literally hundreds of 7” singles and albums, showcasing the talents of every Jamaican music maker of note.

“No More Heartaches” and “What Am I To Do” were among Trojan’s most popular long players from the early years, when boss reggae ruled the dancehalls both in Jamaica and the UK.

Released in 1969 and 1970, respectively, each of the albums showcases a dozen of the finest recordings to date from the catalogue of leading Jamaican producer, Harry ‘J’ Johnson.

While both LPs have long been regarded as among the finest collections from the boss reggae era of the late sixties and early seventies, neither have previously been issued in their entirety on CD. Until now!
