Description
(various artists) 'Doing Our Thing - More Soul From Jamdown - 1970-1982' Double LP (Germany, Cree Records, Catalogue #CLP 1206) Brand new/unplayed copy of limited Cree Records label double LP vinyl edition/collection of second volume of the "Soul From Jamdown" series (first volume released all the way back in 2001) collecting various classic soul cover sides from Jamaica, circa 1970 - 1982. All killer/no filler, indeed.
(NOTE: LIMITED VINYL EDITION!)
"Artists include Dave Barker, BB Seaton, Junior Byles, Augustus Pablo, Glen Adams, Willie Lindo, Lloyd Charmers, Cedric Brooks, Richard Ace, and more. Sleeve notes from Steve Barrow and Noel Hawks and superb photographs from Dave Hendley. 180-gram vinyl (2-LP set). Cover versions have always been an integral part of Jamaican music and an indication of the wide-ranging influences on reggae and the versatility and adaptability of its artists, musicians and producers in their approach to music making. Anything and everything could be, and has been, incorporated into the mix over the years but it is what reggae's artists, producers and engineers did with their sources that make their cover versions so special and so vitally important; in many cases their versions have travelled so far from their starting point that they are virtually unrecognizable. This set, compiled by reggae historian Steve Barrow, not only demonstrates the massive influence of American soul and disco releases on Jamaican music but also showcases the wholly original approach of Jamaica's musical maestros. The track listing for Doing Our Thing reads like a roll call of some of the best of Jamaica's greatest ever singers, deejays, musicians and producers and the selection opens with one of reggae's first ever artists to break into the international charts. In 1971 the inimitable Dave Barker, as one half of 'Dave & Ansel Collins', hit all around the globe with Double Barrel which was inspired by two American records The Funkie Moon by Smokey Johnson & Company and Party Time by Ramsey Lewis. Dave could sing every bit as well as he could deejay and both sides of his tremendous talent are featured here." Gatefold sleeve; 20-page booklet.
