Soul Jazz Records celebrate 25 years of working in partnership with Studio One with brand new editions of FIVE of their best-selling CLASSIC Studio One collections all released on limited-edition one-off pressing coloured double vinyl. // The new edition featured albums are Studio One Funk, Studio One Dub, Studio One Ska, Studio One Roots and Studio One Classics. // Studio One Roots set the standard for Soul Jazz Records' long-standing series and features many of the classic artists from Clement 'Sir Coxsone' Dodd's mighty roster of reggae. // This album includes Freddie McGregor, Willie Williams, Cornell Campbell, Alton Ellis, Devon Russell alongside some of the defining in-house groups of Jamaican reggae history - The Sound Dimension, Brentford All-Stars, The Skatalites, New Establishment and more. The album is filled with a mixture of seminal cuts and super-rarities from the vast vaults of 13 Brentford Road. // Stand-out tracks include Alton Ellis's 'Blackish White', a surreal and powerful Afro-centric dream, Count Ossie's Rastafarian drummers' genre-defying interpretation of Booker T and The MGs 'Meditation', Willie Williams awe-inspiring versioning of the Skatalites' seminal Rastafari anthem 'Addis Ababa' and many, many more. // Original sleevenotes by Lloyd Bradley (author of When Reggae Was King), compiled by Mark Ainley (Honest Jons), high-quality Soul Jazz mastering, wicked images of Count Ossie and the Mystic Revelation of Rastafari on the cover, and a rare image of Clement Dodd and musicians inside the studio at Studio One on the full colour inner sleeves. // "The music of this compilation is of a rare, rare beauty and is essential to anyone's reggae collection."
