LP – Black Vinyl. Presented on a striking and effective sleeve layout, evoking the records status as a lost white-label classic, with stamped Midnight Rock logos across the sleeve and labels. Presented by Acid Jazz on Roots Records, a first-time reissue of classic dancehall recorded for Jah Thomas Midnight Rock label, previously only issued as a promotional white label. Midnight Rock was home to many of the great voices of dancehall, with producer Jah Thomas at the helm, adding vocals to the high-quality rhythms recorded at Channel One studios with the legendary, de facto resident band Roots Radics. Thomas made some of the earliest recordings for both Early B and future super star Super Cat, and as Super Cat became the hottest name on the scene, Thomas lined up a showcase album featuring a side from each artist. A small number of white labels were pressed up, but the release never got further. Side A gathered up four of Early Bs most well loved cuts including Visit Of King Selasie, Sunday Dish, Pedestrian and Cane Man A Fe Bath. It also included a track called Set Up Yourself Right, which was never released elsewhere, but Thomas himself remembers playing well from the various sound systems he gave test cuts to. Side B featured the 5 cuts that Thomas had made with Super Cat, showing him fully formed even at this formative stage in his career. Dance Inna New York has since had a second life since being sampled by Nas on Nas The Don, but every track from Way Dem A Fight Fa through Ever Ready, to Walk A Ton and on to Me Glad She Gone are a great combination between producer and vocalist. Presented on a striking and effective sleeve layout, evoking the records status as a lost white-label classic, with stamped Midnight Rock logos across the sleeve and labels. Finally, the chance to own this elusive piece of reggae/dancehall history. Tracklist: Side A – Early B:1. Visit Of King Selassie2. Sunday Dish3. Pedestrian4. Set Yourself Right5.
