Description
• Includes numerous tracks new to CD.
• The perfect soundtrack to summer.
• Features major hits from the golden age of reggae.
For most people, reggae is the sound of summer. Originating from an island where back-to-back days of warm sunshine and blue skies are enjoyed throughout the year, its cool, laid-back vibes provide the perfect musical accompaniment to those precious moments spent lazing by the sea, soaking in the sun, or just chilling in the shade.
And it is specifically for those seeking to enhance their summer season by immersing themselves in the glorious sound of Jamaica that we present 'Reggae In The Sun’, an irresistible celebration of glorious sun-filled tracks from the late 70s and early 80s, performed by some of the island’s greatest artists.
Including hits from such legendary performers as John Holt, Ken Boothe, Errol Dunkley, Barry Biggs, Marcia Griffiths, Sophia George, and Janet Kay, this joyous 2CD set is guaranteed to brighten even the gloomiest of days throughout your summer - and well beyond!
