Since making his recording debut in the early Seventies with legendary British reggae band, Matumbi, Dennis ‘Blackbeard’ Bovell has repeatedly demonstrated his supreme talent and versatility in a variety of music fields. And yet enormity of his impact upon the UK’s music scene over the past five decades has remained largely overlooked. ‘The DuBMASTER – The Essential Anthology’ sets to finally address this injustice by presenting the first serious retrospective of Dennis’s output as both a performer and producer. Charting his career from the Seventies up to the present day, this handsomely packaged double vinyl gate-folded album presents 24 of his most celebrated reggae works - including Janet Kay’s seminal lovers rock classic, ‘Silly Games’ – as well as rarities and previously unissued treasures from the vaults. Compiled by the artist himself, the collection is further enhanced by Dennis’s fascinating account of his life in the music business over the past half century, with his words enriched by rare photos.

Dennis Brown's Deep Down celebrates it's 50th anniversary with it's first-ever official reissue - a long-awaited return of one of his most treasured and elusive albums, originally released in 1976 on Niney the Observer's imprint. Remastered using analogue machines, this edition restores the warmth, grit, and vitality that define the golden age of roots reggae.Pressed on a special ultra gold vinyl, this anniversary release celebrates the deep tones and pure soul that made Dennis Brown a true alternative to Bob Marley and The Wailers. While Marley carried reggae's revolutionary fire, Brown brought a more romantic and spiritual touch - a sound that would help define what the world now knows as Lover's Rock.By the time Deep Down appeared, Dennis Brown had parted ways with Trojan and was working with producer Winston "Niney the Observer" Holness, a partnership that produced some of the greatest roots reggae ever recorded. Capturing Brown in full creative bloom, the album blends devotional roots messages, soulful vocals, and early hints of dancehall energy. His voice moves effortlessly through the ska-paced 'Travelling Man', the funk-edged 'Open the Gate', and the gospel-tinged 'God Bless Our Soul', while 'Tribulation' and' Shame' reveal the emotional depth that made him one of reggae's most beloved singers.Never released worldwide, the album became one of his most sought-after and collectible recordings.

Marking a monumental 50 years in the music industry, this high-energy career overview is the ultimate party playlist, packing five decades of quick wit, irreverent delivery, and infectious riddims into one essential collection.FIVE DECADES OF A DANCEHALL GREATEmerging in the mid-1970s as a vital force in reggae's second-wave deejay scene, Dillinger (born Lester Randal Bullock) forever changed the genre.

This is one party you won't want to stop."Dillinger is one of reggae's most innovative artists.

Shark Belly Motel is more than just an album title for The Elovaters and their quickly growing fanbase, it represents a communal state of mind. A metaphysical destination where listeners can transcend the doldrums of everyday life and lose themselves in the rhythms and melodies of the songs. So it's telling that their music has also found followers among the fanbases of iconic legends like Jack Johnson, Jimmy Buffett and followers of Kenny Chesney's "No Shoes Radio" on SiriusXM. It's a place that lead singer and songwriter Jackson Wetherebee and his bandmates have been working towards with their art from the early days playing dive bars in Boston, and continue to strive for today, even as they sell out storied venues like Red Rocks and draw tens of thousands of fans to their shows across the country.

Almost fifteen years since the release of her self-titled debut LP on Mr Bongo, reggae's orator of love Hollie Cook is returning to the label for Shy Girl, her fifth studio album and her most authentic yet. Woven with tight grooves, beautiful vocals and catchy melodies, Shy Girl hears singer and songwriter Hollie Cook revel in her contemporary lovers rock sound, more confident and open to vulnerability than ever before. A sun-drenched exploration of love in all it's guises, Shy Girl tells stories of the magical and the melancholy, the heart-lifting and heart-breaking, across 12 luscious, analogue reggae compositions - the culmination of a soft-hued and instantly recognisable "tropical pop" sound that Cook has made her own. Put together across three years and four cities - from LA and NYC, to Vejer de la Frontera in Spain and Cook's hometown London - Shy Girl was written with long-time collaborators, The General Roots Band, and features a contribution from legendary dub MC Horseman, who lends his voice to the album's first single 'Night Night'. The album opens with the title track 'Shy Girl', a buoyant and elastic slice of lovers rock that was written in a moment of spontaneous intuition, and bubbles with a charisma and positivity that Cook radiates. "I'm not a natural show-off," Cook explains. "The Shy Girl theme is me. It's just about being my most vulnerable self and being as true to the music that Iove as possible." It is this honesty which shines throughout, from the chugging deep dub of 'Frontline', complete with raking electric guitar lines, to the bittersweet roots ballad 'We Share Love', which closes out the album.It's clear to see that Cook's songwriting draws on a lifetime of musical influences and inspirations. From her father, Sex Pistols drummer Paul Cook's record collection and touring with post-punk icon Ari Up's The Slits, to her love for strong female-led pop music and the bassweight of London's sound system culture. Enamoured with the music of Janet Kay and Phyllis Dillon, Shy Girl represents a homecoming and a coming-of-age for Hollie Cook, distilling and refining a shimmering reggae sound that will capture your heart, as it first captured hers.

Tri colored Vinyl (Red, Gold, Green). Junior Marvin is widely recognized as an all-time great reggae musician and Musical Director and guitarist of Bob Marley's iconic band, The Wailers. Junior's new album, Happy Family, will be released 2/16/24 and will coincide with the theatrical release of One Love, the Bob Marley Paramount biopic feature film on 2/14/24. In the film, the role of Junior is played by his real-life son, Davo, who is also a musical artist. The first single from Happy Family will be Junior's new recording of "One Love". Junior Marvin was born in Jamaica and grew up in London and met the late Tuff Gong icon on Valentine's Day in 1977 (ironically the same day the film will be released) who touted him as the "young Jimi Hendrix of London". Marley immediately asked Junior to join his band as lead guitarist and became one of Marley's closest friends up until his death. Junior's guitar playing was a huge influence on Marley, and his musicianship can be clearly heard on such seminal Marley tracks as "Could You Be Loved" (which Junior originally wrote and gave to Marley), "Waiting in Vain, " "Buffalo Soldier, " "The Heathen", "One Love" and "Jamming".
