After Lee Perry’s party-starter Return Of Django crashed the UK charts at number five in 1968, Trojan rounded up the best of his other instrumentals, as an LP under the same title. Brilliant boss organ heat like Cold Sweat and Night Doctor.
They swiftly followed up with another bunch of lean and mean JA funk — still dressed as a Spaghetti Western soundtrack — culminating in the astounding Tight Spot.

In-a-state TWENTY-EIGHT original Upsetters here.
All mint or near enough; labels as pictured.
This one is prime Dennis Alcapone.

Copper-bottomed rocksteady do-over of Take Five, by Buster’s go-to saxophonist. The title is nicked from a comedy film directed by Norman Jewison, out a couple of years beforehand in 1966.
Plus Glen Adams having a not so shabby go at an Eddie Holman, on the flip.

Extended, with dub.

Agony aunts Clifford Morrison and Dada Smith from The Bassies, with George Blake replacing Leroy Fischer, in 1969. Cornerstone moonstompers, both sides.

Magnificent dub album out originally on the Senrab label in 1976, drawing on a series of brilliant sevens and twelves on labels like City Line and Wackies, and sister imprints like Upton, Versatile, and Munchie Jackson’s Earth label. Core rhythm tracks from Jamaica — Treasure Isle mostly, with Tubbys mixes — worked over at the Sounds Unlimited studio on E 24th Street in Manhattan, given the full treatment by Lloyd Barnes alongside Prince Douglas and Jah Upton, in the first months of the White Plains Road headquarters.
