Since 50’s the sound systems that sprang up downtown Jamaica have been not only the place to spin 45 and dancing but also the most popular and important hub of great innovation for reggae music and Jamaican culture. Today the excitement of 45 era (not CDJ era) has faded into memory but fortunately countless live recordings remain. Many of them were sold as cassette tapes. Give many thanks and great respect to the original owners, who kindly released their treasures. So now, bigop all massive! URFD post vintage sound tape 70’s - early 2K. For all Jamaican reggae music and sound system lovers. Hope uno enjoy! ONE LOVE.

NOTE:
Despite Jah Creation is not well known, has been documented many sound clash on tapes, vs: Jaro, Odyssey, Ricky Trooper, Addies and Stone Love. This time, Jah Creation bravely take on Kingston's hometown hero, Jaro (Freddie Krueger era). Jah Creation was MoBay sound maybe (can listen on Bounty Killer dub "Montego Bay yuh know Jah Creation yuh total obey" )  Dub-fi-dub include many Rasta artists and Top DJ. The MC seems to follow Trooper style, nonetheless the hype is real deal. Must listen!
