More Jammys From the Roots puts a spotlight mid to late eighties Jammy’s productions of some of reggae's finest rhythms both vintage ('Stalag', 'Real Rock' 'African Beat', 'Satta') and up-to-the-time ('32 Chip', 'Run down the World'). Featured vocalists include Junior Murvin, Dennis Brown, Horace Andy, Johnny Osbourne and Wailing Souls. Multiple tracks in the collection are available here for the first time on CD. Reggae fans will be delighted to find these sought after recordings available again. More Jammy’s From The Roots will be eagerly snapped up by the growing reggae audience increasingly finding the mid-eighties ‘digital revolution’ to be another ‘golden age’ in reggae.

The next cut to Mungo’s lick over of Ice Cream Love is the lead single and title track from their forthcoming album. It’s a sound burial combination, pairing the great Johnny Osbourne with the lyrical pride of Ipswich, YT. Over-proof, unadulterated, undiluted: it sums up the album’s theme perfectly. Nothing is watered down here.

A – Mungo's Hi Fi ft YT & Johnny Osbourne – No wata down ting

Freddie McGregor & Sugar Minott - Stop That Fussing & Fighting

The Big Ship Captain Freddie McGregor entered 2016 at the top of the New York and South Florida Chart with his latest single “What You Gonna Do.” The track is on heavy rotation in the UK and is also featured on VP Records latest Strictly the Best Album. Produced by Freddie McGregor, Dalton Browne and Lloyd Campbell for Big Ship Music Inc., the album – “True To My Roots” will be released in Japan in May followed by official releases in Europe and North America.
McGregor shares that as a forerunner of the Jamaican music brand, he was inspired to show that good music is still being made in Jamaica and artists like him continue to engage with new and old audiences even in a far more competitive environment.
To support the album, Freddie will lead the Big Ship to Europe this summer at all the major festivals. Long time fans of Di Captain will not be disappointed and younger audiences will appreciate the authentic sweet rootsy sound from this class act.

Reggae veteran Johnny Osbourne is one of Jamaica’s best-loved singers with scores of hit tunes from nearly four decades for the likes of Winston “Bam Bam” Riley, Studio One, King Jammys,
Channel 1, Bobby Digital and countless others. His hits span
over 30 years and include “Truths and Rights”, “Folly Ranking”,
“Buddy Bye-Bye”, “Come Back Darling”, 
“Give a Little Love” and “Water Pumping”.

“Black Starliner” was first heard as a Sound System dubplate special, eventually released by Roots Garden to popular demand on 7inch single in 2005(RGR:001). Quickly selling out, the song gained massive air play on radio stations worldwide and became a much sought-after modern day roots classic on the European sound system circuit.

Manasseh totally reworks the original rhythm track for the remix
with more of a contemporary feel, yet with obvious references
to the early 1980’s Roots Radics era of ‘dancehall’ roots hits
mixed by Scientist. Johnny Osbourne’s baritone vocal takes a
fresh approach to the popular repatriation theme by
addressing the issue from a sharper angle:
”you wait for the Black Starliner, and you never want to
go a Africa, you never want to hear the words of Jah Jah,
you never read up the holy scripture, you never respect
one another, and yet your waiting for the Black Starliner?!”
