Description

Kingston Sound document the roots of Dancehall through the productions of Black Solidarity aka producer Ossie Thomas.

An early adopter of the drum machine, Ossie worked with a stack of names such as Triston Palmer, Robert French, Papa Levi, Puddy Roots, Early B, Tony Tuff and Josey Wales on his signature slow and heavy style.

Some killer early nuggets to be found here like Michael Palmer's ‘String Up The Sound System’, Ashanti Waugh's ‘Crime Act’, Josey Wales' steppin' ace ‘Let Go The Rhythm’ and Johnny Osborne's bonus cut ‘Treat Her Like A Lady’ (CD only)

Available on CD & LP.
