Duke Reid Rock's Steady (180g) (Limited-Numbered-Edition) (Orange Vinyl)

180 GRAM AUDIOPHILE VINYL FIRST 750 NUMBERED COPIES PRESSED ON ORANGE VINYL TROJAN'S FIRST RELEASE FROM 50 YEARS AGO! In honour of the 50th year anniversary of the UK's first Trojan label, Music On Vinyl proudly make available once more the album that got the ball rolling back in the summer of 1967. The first of a series of classic albums from the legendary Trojan catalogue that will see issue throughout the year, the erroneously titled Duke Reid Rock's Steady was originally released by Island Records to promote their new Trojan label, an imprint launched to specifically showcase the productions of legendary Treasure Isle Records boss, Arthur 'Duke' Reid. Simultaneously issued in Jamaica as ock Steady Beat', the LP highlights the best of Reid's output from the preceding months and proved so popular back in '67 that pressings quickly sold out on both sides of the Atlantic. Now, 50 years on, lovers of the coolest sound to emanate from Jamaica's golden shores can finally own a copy of this seminal collection without needing to spend a duke's ransom for the pleasure!
