Don Carlos, Soul Syndicate - Black Harmony / Black Love
Rawse / Digikiller / Deeper Knowledge US 1976
¥1680 (US$10.86)
A long time in the making, part one of a new series of reissues produced by the great Lloyd "Bullwackie" Barnes. So many Wackie's productions are long among our personal favorites, and some helped introduce us to the wonderful world of Jamaican music. We'll be issuing many now hard to find singles as well as some previously LP-only tracks and other surprises! Our first selection of singles all appear, of course, on their original labels. An NYC/JA collaboration with Wackie's producing an early tune by Don Carlos, originally credited as 'Jah Carlos', over a tough Soul Syndicate rhythm. This one is on the Rawse label.

¥2180 (US$14.10)
Clive Matthews - Big Brown Eyes / Dub
Fox Fire / Digikiller / Deeper Knowledge US 1979
¥1180 (US$7.63)
'Big Brown Eyes' is a great one from the late '70s with tough horns, in fact the crew liked this tune so much that they re-cut it in the early '80s in a more rub-a-dub style!
Trevor Byfield - Jah Guide / Father Version
Fox Fire / Digikiller / Deeper Knowledge US 1979
N/A
'Jah Guide' is classic roots, originally released only on a UK 12-inch on the Ethnic Fight label.
Jennifer Lara - Music By The Score / Dub
Cry Tuff / Digikiller / Deeper Knowledge US 1979
N/A
Deep late '70s roots from Prince Far I's CRY TUFF label. Only ever released on JA 45, reissued for the first time. As lovers of female fronted roots tunes we had to get this killer Jennifer Lara tune out there, a rugged lick of the 'rockfort rock' riddim.
