Roots Garden records are proud to present a brand new LP from Jamaica's master trombonist Vin Gordon
and his eight piece 'Real Rock Band'.

Seven blazing instrumental fuelled roots reggae tracks featuring an all-star line-up of musicians, with vocals from Shaka Black on tracks 1 & 3.

The Album was recorded and mixed by Nick Manasseh at the Yard Studios in West London.

Vin reinvents his 1968 early reggae classic 'Heavenless' for the intro & title track, before taking us on a journey through new compositions, departing only on track 4 to revisit a tune he played on in 1974 at King Tubby's studio for Yabby You, old friend and sparring partner Tommy McCook's deep roots instrumental 'Revenge', this time complete with extended dubwise mixdown.

Out on Vinyl LP and Download May 2nd 2016

We feel privileged to present an hour of inspiring records from https://soundcloud.com/dsao (Dele Sosimi), the afrobeat legend headlining the Lawn Stage at Gottwood this year along side his Afrobeat Orchestra.

Dele's career began when he joined Fela Kuti's Egypt 80 in 1979, he then moved on to create Positive Force, a band with Femi Kuti with whom he performed from 1986 to 1994. He has since released numerous solo albums, most recently on https://soundcloud.com/wahwah45s, all formed from a complex blend of funk grooves, Nigerian traditional music, African percussion and jazz horns.
